Career

Mance Post (1980)

Post made her debut in 1946 as illustrator of the book Het boek van Thijs en Claartje written by J.A. Schreuder.[2] Post won a Vlag en Wimpel award in 1980 for illustrating the book Ik woonde in een leunstoel by Guus Kuijer and also in 1984 for illustrating the book Het geheim van Toet-Mu-Is III by Mansfield Kirby.[3]

Post illustrated many of Guus Kuijer's books, in particular his Madelief book series. Kuijer won two Gouden Griffel awards and one Zilveren Griffel award for three books in the series. The series was later adapted to television (Madelief, 1994) and film (Scratches in the Table, 1998). In 1982 she won the Deutscher Jugendliteraturpreis together with Guus Kuijer for the book Erzähl mir von Oma, the German translation of Krassen in het tafelblad (1978).[4]

From 1985 onwards Post illustrated many of Toon Tellegen's books for almost three decades. In 2006, at age 81, Post received the Zilveren Penseel award for her illustrations in Tellegen's book Midden in de nacht.

Post illustrated books by many other Dutch authors as well, including Annie M.G. Schmidt, Ienne Biemans and Hans Hagen.[4]

Post was the first recipient of the prestigious Max Velthuijs-prijs for her entire oeuvre in 2007.[2]
