In 1886, he married Florence Mary Cartwright (d.1948), with whom he had an only child, the illustrator Kitty Shannon (1887-1974).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShannon was born on 3rd February 1862 in Auburn, New York, and at the age of eight was taken by his parents to Canada. When he was sixteen, he went to England, where he studied at South Kensington, and after three years won the gold medal for figure painting. His portrait of the Hon. Horatia Stopford, one of the queen's maids of honour, attracted attention at the Royal Academy in 1881, and in 1887 his portrait of Henry Vigne in hunting costume was one of the successes of the exhibition, subsequently securing medals for the artist at Paris, Berlin, and Vienna.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHe soon became one of the leading portrait painters in London. He was one of the first members of the New English Art Club, a founder member of the Royal Society of Portrait Painters and in 1897 was elected an associate of the Royal Academy, and RA in 1909. His picture The Flower Girl was bought in 1901 for the national collection at Tate. Shannon was named as a co-respondent in a divorce case. In 1902, he exhibited the portrait of Mrs Fred Elliott at the Royal Academy. On 30 September 1902, the husband of Mrs Fred Elliott filed divorce proceedings: petitioner Frederick John Elliott, respondent Sophia Jane Elliott and co-respondent James Jebusa Shannon.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShannon has paintings in the collection of several British institutions, including Sheffield, Derby Art Gallery, Glasgow Museum and Bradford Museum.
