Dorothy Wall (1894–1942) was a New Zealand–born Australian author and illustrator best known for creating the beloved children’s character Blinky Bill. She moved to Australia in 1914 and published The Tale of Bridget and the Bees in 1924, which marked the beginning of her career in children’s literature. Wall wrote and illustrated Blinky Bill: The Quaint Little Australian in 1933, which became a national icon and was followed by several sequels. Her legacy lives on through adaptations of Blinky Bill in television and film.
