Hubacek was born in Chicago, moving with his family to San Francisco while still a child. His initial studies in art we're at the Mark Hopkins Institute with Virgil Williams and Arthur Mathews. He is best known for his realistic still lifes and landscapes. Little of his work prior to 1906 has survived as his studio was destroyed by an earthquake that year.
