Hideko Takahashi is a children's book illustrator. She was born in Osaka, Japan and educated in at Doshisha University in Kyoto, Japan. In 1990, she moved to Los Angeles to attend Otis College of Art and Design. Her work is included in Cooper Hewitt Museum.[1] She did her a majority of schooling and education life in Kyoto, Japan, until later she moved to the U.S. in 1990 to attend Otis. After graduation, in 1994, she began to work as a freelance illustrator. Since then, she has made a professional career out of creating numerous illustrations for children's books, including: Beach Play, Good Night God Bless, Hot Dog on TV, Lull-a-bye Little One, The Ding Dong Clock, In My New Yellow Shirt, My Loose Tooth and Come to My Party and Other Shape Poems, Matthew's Truck and Princess Fun. Lynn Plourde, author of Snow Day, writes of Takahashi, "Hideko's illustrations have such kid-appeal and look deceptively simple (with basic colors and shapes), but they are filled with fun angles and perspectives and amazing details (cards look like real playing cards, and a braided rug is so textured you want to touch it)." In 2001, Takahashi moved to her adopted home of Seattle, which is now her favorite city.
Hideko Takahashi has professionally worked in illustrating for numerous children’s books, magazines, and educational materials, and her area of interests are in her specialty and among her favorite things which includes playful illustrations of children, dogs, and bugs. Active interests at home where she fondly recalls drawing and watching TV at the same time - which she still enjoys to this day.
