Lily Renee, Escape Artist: from Holocaust Survivor to Comic Book Pioneer
Books
Author: Robbins, Trina
Illustrator: Anne Timmons and Mo Oh. Minneapolis
Not only did Lily Wilheim survive, she triumphed over circumstances that forced her from a loving home in pre-war Vienna, on a Kinder transport to England, to the United States and through a variety of jobs and situations to become a comic book illustrator. Timmons and Oh’s vibrant graphic format, and the back matter with photographs, a glossary and historical descriptions, make for an exciting and educational biography.
