Celia Fiennes

Celia Fiennes joined the Central School in 1924, the same year as Joyce Clissold, with whom she shared lodgings. She studied wood-engraving under Noel Rooke (q.v.) and gained a few book illustration commissions, most notably for Robert Gibbings's Golden Cockerel Press. (Proofs of all but one of her illustrations to 'The Fables of Aesop' (1926) are held in the Archive.) Rooke, as Honorary Secretary of the Arts and Crafts Exhibition Society, found her a job as paid assistant secretary. This she did from 1926 to 1932, when she married Rooke, by which time she had abandoned wood engraving.
