Nell Brinkley, Creator of 'The Brinkley Girl' and Early Comics Innovator
Known as “the queen of comics” in the Golden Age of Illustration, Nell Brinkley brought a new style of cartooning to the newspaper pages. Ready for something different than the sassy, rosy-cheeked cute kids in cartoons, readers were enthralled with Nell’s artwork. There were few women in cartooning, and few cartoonists creating comics in her style featuring poised, model-like faces, upswept, curly hair and the romantic fashions. During the 1910s to the mid-1940s, Nell earned prestige in the pages of William Randolph Hearst’s New York Evening Journal.
