Annie Fish (27 March 1890 – 10 October 1964) was a British cartoonist and illustrator. Her illustration of "Eve" in ‘The Tatler’ spawned films, theatre and books. She was born in Horfield (Bristol) before her family moved to London. She went to work for the publisher John Lane. Her debut work was creating cartoons for Stephen Leacock's humorous book Behind the Beyond. Her work was compared to Aubrey Beardsley although Fish noted that she did not see his work until after the comparison had been made. She was the illustrator of "Eve" until 1920 and after that the character continued to appear in Pan magazine illustrated by Jo White and later Dolly Tree.
