Violet Moore Higgins: The Endless Story


Violet Moore Higgins (1886 - 1963), born Violet Idelle Moore, attended the Art Institute of Chicago in the early 1900s, and then settled in New York as an illustrator for children's books and magazines. She has illustrated books like 'Pinocchio', 'Heidi', 'Hans Brinker' and 'The Three Bears'. In the 1910s she made 'Picture Puzzle Nursery Rhymes' for the Boston Globe. Her feature 'Drowsy Dick', about a boy who was injected into several fairytales, was published in the New York World and syndicated by New York World Press Publishing in 1926-28. In 1946-47 she illustrated Bible stories, fables and activity pages in the Treasure Chest comic book. In the 1950s, she drew a children's feature for the Associated Press called 'Junior Editors', which ran until her death in 1963. (Lambiek Comicopedia)
