Collins was a Professor of Art at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. He received degrees from Marshall University in West Virginia, the University of Michigan, and a M.F.A. degree in sculpture from Ohio University. There is more information in Who’s Who in American Art and at the website www.collins3D.com. His work can be found in many collections in the United States and Ireland with the majority located in the Southeastern United States.
