Polly Pinder studied graphics at Leeds Art College. Her first job
was with a Yorkshire newspaper, and she subsequently worked as a
lecturer in graphic design at Wakefield District College. She has
written and illustrated a number of books on a variety of other
subjects including cake decoration and growing herbs, papermaking
and paper crafts. Her illustrations in Muck and
Magic were commended when that book won the 1993 Sir Peter
Kent Conservation Book Prize. She has also designed bed linen and
wallpapers, and the graphics for a wallpaper book based on
newly-discovered eighteenth-century wallpapers.
Polly now works from her pottery studio creating beautiful,
small-batch candle holders and large food platters.
