During World War II, Crimi went to work for Sperry Gyroscope making drawings of weapons and instruments for military training manuals.
After the war, Crimi worked as a painter and watercolorist. His style evolved into abstractionism, including his painting "Metropolis", which "uses rectangular and abstract geometrical forms to represent a modern city."[3] He held numerous shows and was credited with having nine solo shows by 1963 when Francis Quirk organized an exhibit at Lehigh University.[4]
