Harrison Fisher Bio - The Man Behind The Women

"The Father of a Thousand Girls"

Harrison Fisher was born in Brooklyn, NYC but spent most of his youth in San Francisco until he turned 21 years old. He then moved back to New York where he began his highly successful career as a magazine illustrator.

Pictured to the left is Mr. Fisher in his New York studio, 1909. Pictured below is a 1909 photograph of Margery Allwork who modeled for Mr. Fisher for over twenty years.

Harrison Fisher never married, but his "secretary," Kate Clemens, was also his lifetime partner.

During World War One Harrison Fisher showed his patriotism by illustrating posters for the US government, free of charge.

In one newspaper article he was quoted as lamenting that he drew women almost exclusively, but that is what the market demanded.
