Hetty Burlingame Beatty (October 8, 1907 – August 20, 1971) was an American sculptor, writer of children's literature and illustrator.
Frederick W. Allen was the daily instructor at that time with Charles Grafly coming up from Philadelphia twice a month to give criticisms as head of the Sculpture Department.
A one-woman show of her sculpture and drawings was held at the Worcester Art Museum in 1941.
[2] In addition to being a sculptor, Beatty also took up writing and illustrating children’s books.
[1] Beatty once commented to Contemporary Authors, "I started out as a sculptor and gradually shifted over to the field of writing, becoming so absorbed in it that I devote nearly all my time to it now, along with illustration of most of my own books for children.”[3] Hetty Burlingame Beatty died on August 20, 1971.
