Borghild Rud


Borghild Rud (20 March 1910, Ringsaker – 25 June 1999) was a Norwegian illustrator. She was a sister of Nils Johan Rud. She attended the Norwegian National Academy of Craft and Art Industry from 1926 until 1930. She worked for the magazine Arbeidermagasinet (later renamed Magasinet for Alle) from 1929 to 1970. She illustrated fairytales, books by Garborg and Hamsun. She is often most well known for her collaborations with Alf Prøysen. She made illustrations for over 800 of his texts, including all but one of his "stubben" (short works of prose) in Arbeidermagasinet and many his Mrs. Pepperpot stories. After her work with the magazine, she had her first solo exhibition in 1977. She was also trained as an exotic dancer.
