Annie Vallotton

[3] Vallotton also worked in a refugee centre in Toulouse where she painted murals on the walls in attempt to make them more welcoming to families from Poland, Estonia and other Baltic states.

Prior to her success with the Good News Bible, her only work had been one called Priority, a collection of 60 illustrations covering the life of Jesus and considered so unmarketable by her agent that he dumped 3,000 copies in the Seine.

[5] At Eurofest '75, the Billy Graham organised conference in Belgium, Vallotton gave an illustrated talk on an overhead projector, fitted with an acetate scroll, each morning before the Bible exposition.

After a ten-minute meeting with Nida at Stuttgart Airport, Vallotton agreed to begin work on the Good News For Modern Man Bible.

She also designed six stained-glass windows depicting the Creation at the Reformed Church of Saint-Dié-des-Vosges in Lorraine, northeastern France where her brother Paul Vallotton was the minister.
