Hilda Annetta Walker FRSA (1877 – 3 June 1960) was an English sculptor, and a painter of landscapes, seascapes and horses, flourishing between 1902 and 1958.

Some of her early work was the production of oilette postcard paintings for Raphael Tuck & Sons, of firemen and horses.

She was born in Mirfield, Yorkshire, England, to a family of blanket manufacturers who had the means to foster her art education.

[5] Walker's immediate family displayed the Calvinist work ethic of Congregationalism,[6] together with financial support of education as might be available to the sons and daughters of successful 19th-century Yorkshire textile mill owners.

1879)[17][18][22] was a colonel, a DSO, a Home Guard zone commander and deputy lieutenant for the West Riding of Yorkshire.

Her sister Dora Muriel Walker (2 July 1890 – 1980)[17][18][22][30] was the first woman to run a fishing trawler out of Whitby and was a VAD in Belgium and France in the First World War.

In the Second World War Dora continued to fish, but also assisted in London air raid shelters.

[1] Between the wars, Walker performed public duties; for example in March 1925 she opened a sale of work at Cleckheaton, for the Liberal Club there.

[40][41] In January 1942 she presented the Mirfield Hospital Supply Services Depot with pieces of blanket from her father's factory.

[43][44] In May 1943, Walker presented art prizes of savings stamps at the RAF Equipment and Photographic Exhibition at Mirfield, where children had entered a competition for Wings for Victory Week.

[45] This was part of a wartime campaign by Mirfield to raise £70,000 for the war effort, and the children's competition was the opening feature of that week.

When John Ely Walker died in 1943, they donated the paintings Fruit Girl by James Northcote and The Golden Bough after J. M. W. Turner to Doncaster Museum and Art Gallery.

[47][48] At an unknown date, Walker donated Runswick Fish Wife by her teacher William Gilbert Foster to Kirklees Museums and Galleries.
