Nacido 09 de febrero 1896 en el Perú, Alberto Vargas era el hijo de un fotógrafo de renombre, Max Vargas, quien le había enseñado a usar un aerógrafo desde cuando tenía trece años. En 1911, mientras acompañaba a Max en un viaje a París, Alberto se encontró con la famosa revista La Vie Parisienne, y sus portadas sensuales hechas por Raphael Kirchner dejó una impresión imborrable en él. Estudió en Zurich y Ginebra antes de salir de Europa a causa de la guerra y llegar a Ellis Island en octubre de 1916.
El primer encuentro de Vargas con América ocurrió alrededor del mediodía en la calle Broadway y XIV, cuando de repente se vio rodeado por una multitud de trabajadoras de oficina elegantemente vestidas. Hipnotizado por su gracia, sofisticación y belleza el joven artista decidió que dedicaría su vida glorificando la American Girl.
