Jean Everald Tangye née Nicol (Jeannie) (23 March 1919 – 22 February 1986) was an author, illustrator and painter, who lived on a small holding near Lamorna Cove, west Cornwall in the United Kingdom.
She was married to the writer Derek Tangye and appeared in (and illustrated) The Minack Chronicles, a series of books of their life together.
Jeannie met many famous actors and actresses, including Danny Kaye, James Mason, Charlie Chaplin and Gertrude Lawrence as well as politicians and eminent world leaders during her time at the Savoy group of hotels.
Many of these remained friends with Derek and Jeannie when they moved to Cornwall including, for example, the politician George Brown.
Jeannie and Derek Tangye left London in 1949 and moved to Cornwall to live at Dorminack, a small holding on the cliffs in the parish of St Buryan.
