Dillwyn Parrish
George Dillwyn Parrish( July 25, 1894 – August 6, 1941) was an American writer, illustrator, and painter.
Born in Colorado Springs, Colorado, Parrish was usually known by his middle name" Dillwyn", or" Tim" or" Timmy" by those close to him.
He was the son of Thomas Parrish, who came from an artistic Philadelphia family, and Anne Lodge, who had studied at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, becoming a respected portrait painter, and becoming a friend of Mary Cassatt in Paris.
Dillwyn Parrish was the younger brother of author Anne Parrish; they were cousins to the artist Maxfield Parrish who used them as models in some of his paintings.
Dillwyn's father Thomas gained success in the Colorado mining business but died when Dillwyn was relatively young.
His mother moved the family back to her hometown of Claymont, Delaware.
Dillwyn Parrish studied art in Philadelphia, then attended Harvard University, where he made the acquaintance of Conrad Aiken and E. E. Cummings.
During World
War
I he volunteered to drive ambulances for the American Field Service in France, but after being diagnosed with severe malnutrition he was sent back to the U.S. to recover.
A year later he was drafted into the United States Army and served in a military hospital.
While still in his twenties, medical problems began to plague him, exacerbated by the fact that he was a heavy cigarette smoker.
In 1923, Dillwyn Parrish did the illustrations for a 209- page children's novel written by his sister Anne," Knee- High to a Grasshopper".
They followed this publication with two more books for children, publishing" Lustres" in 1924 and then earning a Newbery Honor in 1925 for their third collaboration," The Dream Coach".
On a trip to Switzerland the two purchased Le Paquis a cottage in a meadow overlooking Lake Geneva not far from Lausanne between Vevey and Chexbres.
For a time, Dillwyn Parrish tutored the children of a wealthy family, and eventually fell in love with Gertrude" Gigi" McElroy, the family's youngest girl.
In 1926, Harper& Bros published his novel" Smith Everlasting", and between then and 1934 three more of his books came out.
In 1927 he married the fifteen- year- old" Gigi", and for their honeymoon the couple started out on motorcycles from his home in Claymont, Delaware, intending to drive across the country to California.
However, his new bride was severely injured in an accident in the Southwestern United States and, once she was able to travel, they completed the remainder of the journey via train.
In 1929, they moved permanently to California, where a few years later, the beautiful Gigi Parrish was signed to a contract with Samuel Goldwyn's motion picture company and in 1934 she became one of the WAMPAS Baby Stars.
Dillwyn and Gigi Parrish rented a beach house in Laguna Beach, next door to Mary Frances Kennedy Fisher and her husband Alfred Fisher, with whom they became friends.
Dillwyn Parrish fell in love with Mary Fisher, and after encouraging her writing, helped get her culinary essays published in 1937 under the title" Serve it Forth".
Their relationship came at a point when his marriage was already in difficulty, and eventually both couples divorced.
He married M.F.K. Fisher in 1938 and next year Harper published their co-written novel" Touch and Go" under the pseudonym of Victoria Berne.
They lived at Le Paquis in Switzerland until 1939, when war broke out again in Europe.
In January 1940 they bought land with a pinewood cabin in the San Jacinto Mountains near Hemet, California.
Parrish had already developed Buerger's disease, which resulted in the amputation of a leg.
During this time, he returned to painting, creating a series of works dominated by images of angels of death that formed part of an exhibition organized by the University of California, Los Angeles.
His health rapidly deteriorated, and he lived in constant pain.
Faced with the necessity of further limb amputations, on August 6, 1941 he shot himself in the countryside near his home in the San Jacinto Mountains.
He was cremated, his ashes buried under an overhanging rock on the mountain rim overlooking their home.
He was 47 years old.
Parrish's death impelled his widow into writing more books, mostly culinary.
" Stay Me, Oh Comfort Me: Journals and Stories 1933 – 1941"( 1993) recounted her time with Dillwyn Parrish.
