: "...one of Tolkien’s favorites was a
: Danish illustrator who went by the pseudonym
: Ingahild Grathmer.
: Grathmer sent Tolkien her interpretations of
: scenes from The Lord of the Rings in the
: early ‘70s. The hard-to-impress author
: absolutely loved them, and was taken with
: how similar they were to his own sketches.
: Grathmer’s art ultimately appeared in a 1977
: Danish edition of Lord of the Rings, but by
: this time, the illustrator was preoccupied
: with another job: being Queen of
: Denmark."
I think I also see the name Simone de Beauvoir. Her book "Tous les hommes sont mortels" ("All men are mortal") was traslated into Danish by Margrethe and Henrik under the pseudonym of H. M. Vejerbjerg.
