Dare Wright
Dare Wright (1915-2001) American author and illustrator of children's books.
Dare Wright was a photographer, actress, and model. She grew up in Ohio and she
learned to sketch, paint, write and sew. She combined her writing talent with
photography to become a children's book author. Her first book The Lonely Doll brought
her recognition as an author and photographer. She photographed her childhood
Lenci Doll with two teddy bears to illustrate the children's books she was writing. She
eventually wrote nineteen books in all. She left two unpublished works Make Me Real
and Ocracoke in the Fiftie. They were edited from manuscripts left by Dare and the
last was published in 2007.
