Born in Aargau, Switzerland, Meierhans immigrated to America in 1917 and eventually settled in Perkasie, Pennsylvania. He studied with Karl Knaths and John Sloan at the Art Students League in New York. He was a member of the Society of Independent Artists, Art Students League, Provincetown Art Association, the Lansdale Art League and the Lehigh Art Alliance. He was also a member of American Abstact Artists, an important avant-garde force established in New York in 1936.
