February 5, 1988 (aged 80) Died San Francisco Nationality American St. Paul's School Education Fernand Léger Alma mater Yale University Known for Illustration, Painting Notable work Runaway Bunny series Spouse(s) Edith Thacher Hurd Clement G. Hurd (January 12, 1908 – February 5, 1988) was an American artist. He is known for illustrations of children's picture books, especially collaborations with writer Margaret Wise Brown including Goodnight Moon (1947) and The Runaway Bunny (1942). Biography Early life Hurd was born in New York City[2] to Richard Melancthon Hurd, an economist and mortgage banker, and Lucy Gazzam Hurd.[3] He was educated at St. Paul's School in Concord, New Hampshire,[4] then studied architecture[5] at Yale University and painting with Fernand Léger in Paris.[4] Career Hurd returned to New York in 1933 to work as a commercial artist. There Margaret Wise Brown was an editor at W. R. Scott, as well as a writer of picture book texts. On seeing two of his paintings, she asked him if he would consider illustrating children's books. She wrote a text herself, for what became Bumble Bugs and Elephants (1938) —"perhaps the first modern board book for babies."[4] Hurd's next collaboration with Brown, The Runaway Bunny, has been in print continuoulsy since its 1942 publication. Their next book, Goodnight Moon (1947), is considered classic children's literature in North America; by 1990, the total number of copies sold was more than 4 million.[6] In 2007, the National Education Association named Goodnight Moon one of its "Teachers' Top 100 Books for Children".[7] In 2012 it was ranked number four among the "Top 100 Picture Books" in a survey published by School Library Journal.[8] Hurd also illustrated over fifty books written by his wife Edith Thacher Hurd (a friend of Brown's) as well as a children's book written by Gertrude Stein, The World Is Round. Hurd wrote and illustrated the book Run, Run, Run. Hurd died of Alzheimer's disease at a San Francisco hospital in 1988.[5] Personal life His son Thacher Hurd is also a children's book author and illustrator, and referred in an interview to the "wonderful aura of creativity" surrounding his father and the Vermont farm that was their home.[4] Legacy A doctored/altered photo of Hurd was included in the 60th anniversary republication of Goodnight Moon with a cigarette removed from his hand, an incident of tobacco bowdlerization that caused controversy over publication standards.[9] Hurd's work, as well as that of his wife and son, was featured at the Stamford Museum & Nature Center in the 2004 exhibition "From Goodnight Moon to Art Dog: The World of Clement, Edith and Thatcher Hurd."

  • Margaret Wise Brown and Bedtime Parody Sand
    Lunar Perturbations – How Did We Get from Goodnight Moon to Go the F**k to Sleep?: Margaret Wise Brown and Bedtime Parody Sandy Hudock Colorado State University-Pueblo From an Audi commercial to celebrating the end of the second Bush presidency to the ghost of Mama Cass presiding over a dead Keith Moon, to the ubiquity of the iPad, Good Night Moon has been and no doubt will continue to be parodied or invoked for generations to come. Songwriters reference it, the television show The Wire gives an urban twist to its constant refrain of “good night-----“ with “good night, po-pos, good night hoppers, good night hustlers…” What makes this story so much a part of the collective consciousness, a veritable cultural meme? How did Margaret Wise Brown’s life and her influence in children's publishing result in the longstanding enchantment of Good Night Moon? Recent political and cultural parodies of the go to bed genre all ultimately hearken back to this one simple story painted in green and orange, and the intrinsic comfort it provides to children as a go to bed ritual. Born in New York in 1910 to a wealthy family, Brown was a middle child whose parents’ many moves within the Long Island area required that she change schools four times while growing up, including a stint at a Swiss boarding school. As a child, she made up stories (in her family, a polite way of saying she told lies) and then challenged her siblings to look up the answers in the multi-volume Book of Knowledge, for which she later penned two entries on writing for small children.

  • Creating Children's Books Symposium Friday, October 17
    Creating Children’s Books Symposium Friday, October 17, 2014 Keynote Address, by Leonard S. Marcus An Art in the Making: The American Picture Book Comes of Age It’s an honor and pleasure to be here at Penn--and here in the city of Philadelphia, with its long and illustrious history as a proving ground and home for children’s book authors and artists and their creations. Howard Pyle, who is so often called the “father of American illustration,” taught his craft from 1894 at the Drexel Institute, where his students included Frank Schoonover, Jessie Willcox Smith, Elizabeth Shippen Green, and Violet Oakley. A generation later, during the Great Depression, Bernard Waber grew up here, and while training to be a graphic designer at the Philadelphia School of Industrial Art went on sketching expeditions to the Philadelphia Zoo, where he learned to love--and draw— crocodiles like the one who became his best-known picture-book hero, Lyle. Norton Juster studied architecture at Penn in the late 1940s on his way to writing The Phantom Tollbooth, an uncategorizable classic that for more than half a century has served young people as a kind of blueprint for thinking freely and keeping faith with their own ideas. Jerry Pinkney was born, raised, and educated in this city, and has returned here often--last summer as the subject of Witness, a major retrospective of his work at the Philadelphia Museum of Art. Three-time Caldecott Medal winner David Wiesner lives here now. As for collections, the Free Library of Philadelphia is home to picture book art by Beatrix Potter and Robert Lawson, illustrator of The Story of Ferdinand.
