Dorothy
Grider's Illustrious Career
July
1 - December 20, 2009
|
| Driven
to become an artist from the age of eight, Bowling Green
native Dorothy Grider graduated from Western Kentucky
State Teacher's College, studied art in New York City
and Paris, France, and worked for the U.S. Playing Card
Company and Norcross Greeting Card Company before freelancing
full time. Rapidly becoming Rand McNally’s most
popular children’s book illustrator, Grider’s
work often stood alone in coloring books, picture books,
and activity publications. Illustrating more than 100
books, including six as both author and illustrator,
her work is available today in more than 200 libraries
around the world. |
