Maud Fuller Petersham (August 5, 1890 – November 29, 1971, born Kingston, NY) and Miska Petersham (September 20, 1888 – May 15, 1960) were American writers and illustrators who helped set the direction for illustrated children's books as known today. The Petershams worked closely with such pioneering children's book editors as Louise Seaman Bechtel and May Massee, and with such innovative printers as Charles Stringer and William Glaser. They were members of the Woodstock, NY art community. In 2012, the Woodstock Artists Association and Museum held a retrospective of their work.
