- Robin Jacques was a British artist and book illustrator. Born in London in 1920, he had no formal art training, but taught himself to draw and began working for an advertising agency in his teens. He was the art editor for Strand magazine and art director for the Central Office of Information. He began teaching at Harrow College of Art in 1973 and at Canterbury Art College and Wimbledon Art College in 1975. As a book illustrator, Jacques was prolific: he illustrated over 100 novels and children's books from the 1940s to the 1980s, most notably the fairy-tale compilations of Ruth Manning-Sanders. Jacques was married three times, and had one son. His sister was the well-known actress, Hattie Jacques. He died in 1995.
