From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jessie Gillespie Willing (March 28, 1888 – August 1, 1972) was an American illustrator during the Golden Age of illustration. She was considered the foremost silhouette illustrator of her time, although she did traditional illustration as well. Willing illustrated for books and magazines including Life, The Ladies' Home Journal, Woman's Home Companion, Mother and Child, McClure's Magazine, Childhood Education, the Sunday Magazine, Association Men (the magazine of the YMCA), Farm and Fireside, Every Week, Children: The Magazine for Parents (which became Parents Magazine), and the American Magazine. She is perhaps most well known for her work for the Girl Scouts.

Early life

[edit]

Willing was born in Brooklyn on March 28, 1888, to John Thomson Willing (August 4, 1860 – July 8, 1947)[1][2] and Charlotte Elizabeth Van Der Veer Willing (December 1, 1859 – March 4, 1930).[3] Thomson Willing was a noted illustrator and art editor. He was also well known for finding new artistic talent. Jessie Willing was the eldest of three children. Her brother Van Der Veer (November 30, 1889 – January 14, 1919), who died of pneumonia at the age of 29, was an advertising agent.[4] Her sister Elizabeth Hunnewell Willing (July 26, 1908 – August 15, 1991) was one of the first women to graduate from the Philadelphia Divinity School.[5][6] Elizabeth married the Rev. Orrin Judd, rector of St. Mary's Episcopal Church, on September 22, 1931, and was active in church work.[citation needed]

The Willing family moved to the Germantown neighborhood of Philadelphia in 1901 or 1902. Jessie Willing attended the Stevens School, from which she graduated in 1905. She then went on to attend the Philadelphia Academy of Fine Arts from 1906 to 1907.[7][8]

Career

[edit]
Illustration for Soldier Silhouettes on Our Front (1918)

Willing used her middle name Gillespie as her professional surname. She also often signed her illustrations J.G.[9] The story goes that the art editor of Life magazine was in Thomson Willing's office when he was the art editor of the Associated Sunday Magazine syndicate. Thomson Willing had some of Jessie's artwork on his desk, which the Life editor saw and admired. He asked for the artist's information so that he could give her freelance work. Thomson Willing did not want to be accused of nepotism so he persuaded Jessie to use Jessie Gillespie as her professional name, which she did.[10][11]

In addition to her extensive illustration work, Willing was also the editor of Heirlooms and Masterpieces from 1922 to 1931 and the art editor of Jewelers' Circular-Keystone from 1933 to 1939.[12] She specialized in jewelry publicity and advertising. In 1966 she won the Gold medal of the Printing Week Graphic Arts Exhibit in Philadelphia for her Christmas catalog for J.E. Caldwell Co., Philadelphia.

Willing was a member of the Plastic Club of Philadelphia,[13] the American Institute of Graphic Arts (AIGA) and the National Arts Club of New York.[14] She was an honorary life member of the National Arts Club[15] and served on its Board of Governors from 1941 to 1970. In 1963, she received the Gold Medal of the National Arts Club in recognition of 32 years of selfless devotion.[15] Additionally, she was the national director of the American Institute of Graphic Arts (AIGA) from 1943 to 1946.[15] Previous to this she served as the Program Chairman of the AIGA and in that position she put together a travelling exhibit on the "history of narrative art from the first recorded picture story to the comic book of the twentieth century."[16][17]

Vogue magazine covers

[edit]

Willing's art appeared on several Vogue magazine covers from 1910 to 1912. They are generally signed J.G.

The Girl Scouts

[edit]

Willing was among the noted artists, including Lester Ralph, Margaret Evans Price, and Edith Ballinger Price, to create memorable illustrations for the Girl Scouts. Willing's silhouettes were used in handbooks,[108][109] song books, certificates, postcards,[110][111] Christmas cards,[112] stationery,[113] equipment catalogs,[111] and the Girl Scout magazines, The Rally (1917–1920), The American Girl [114][115][116][117][118][119](1920 - 1979), and The Girl Scout Leader[120] (1923 - 2009).

Work for nonprofits

[edit]

In addition to the work that she did for the Girl Scouts, Willing did publicity work for the Children's Aid Society, the Boys' Club of New York, the Peabody Home for Aged and Indigent Women,[121] the Chapin Home for the Aging and the National Council of Protestant Episcopal Churches.[122]

Willing served as president of the Manhattan United Church Women from 1957 to 1960; the vice president and a director of the Manhattan Protestant Council;[15] a member of the Board of the Church Women, Diocese of New York; and president of the Women's Association of Grace Church, NY.[123][15]

The Parents Magazine Medal and the Boys' Club of NY Harkness Medal

[edit]

In 1927, Children, The Magazine for Parents created an award for the best book for parents, written by an American author and published during the year. Willing created the medal, which depicts the head of a young boy facing left with the inscription, "Puer melior, civis optimus," which translated means "The better the child, the better the citizen."[124] Children, The Magazine for Parents changed its name to Parents' in 1929. The medal was crafted by the Medallic Art Company (MACO) and was assigned the MACO number 1928-012.[125]

Willing also created the image for the William Hale Harkness medal for the highest potential in leadership and citizenship for the Boys' Club of NY. The medal depicts three young men facing right.[126][127] This medal was also crafted by the Medallic Art Company and was assigned the MACO number 1956-076.[128]

Later life and death

[edit]

Willing moved to West Caldwell, NJ, where her sister lived, in 1971. She died in Mountainside Hospital in Montclair, NJ on August 1, 1972, and was interred in the family plot at Greenwood Cemetery in Brooklyn.[8]
