Provided by Wikipedia Mabel Betsy Hill (1877 – 1971) was an American illustrator and author of children's books active in the first half of the 20th century. Her highly linear style with color fills in muted shades of orange, brown, and blue was typical of her era, akin to the work of Maginel Wright Enright and Nans van Leeuwen.
Hill wrote and illustrated her own books such as the "Judy Jo" series, which has a New England girl as the protagonist of mild adventures like helping a needy family in a blizzard. She also illustrated works by other authors, especially a series of readers by Emma Miller Bolenius. For ''The Most Popular Mother Goose Songs'' (1915), each of her full-page illustrations is designed to accommodate a block of sheet music without destroying the composition.
Hill contributed illustrations to magazines like ''St. Nicholas'' and ''Ladies' World''.
Mabel Betsy Hill died in 1971 in New York, United States.
