Eric Car\u00adle<\/strong>
\nEric Car\u00adle (1929-) is a junior of Lioni, and they are often inad\u00adver\u00adtent\u00adly linked togeth\u00ader, per\u00adhaps because they do have some sim\u00adi\u00adlar\u00adi\u00adties.<\/p>\n

For exam\u00adple, they both worked in adver\u00adtis\u00ading design before cre\u00adat\u00ading pic\u00adture books. This was thanks to Lioni. In 1952, when 23-year-old Carl fled Ger\u00admany to New York with only $40 in his pock\u00adet, he met Lioni. Some\u00adhow, this impul\u00adsive young man impressed the design giant. Lioni not only treat\u00aded him to lunch but also arranged his first adver\u00adtis\u00ading design job.<\/p>\n

For exam\u00adple, they can both be con\u00adsid\u00adered Euro\u00adpean. Lioni was born in the Nether\u00adlands and spent his teenage years in Italy. Because of his Jew\u00adish ances\u00adtry and his wife\u2019s sta\u00adtus as the daugh\u00adter of a founder of the Ital\u00adian Com\u00admu\u00adnist Par\u00adty, he was forced to immi\u00adgrate to the Unit\u00aded States dur\u00ading World War II. Karl was born in the Unit\u00aded States, but his par\u00adents were Ger\u00adman. When he was six, his fam\u00adi\u00adly returned to Ger\u00admany. Lat\u00ader, his father was draft\u00aded into the Sovi\u00adet army and trag\u00adi\u00adcal\u00adly spent eight years as a pris\u00adon\u00ader of war, and as a teenag\u00ader, he was forced to dig trench\u00ades. Per\u00adhaps it was these unique expe\u00adri\u00adences that gave the two artists end\u00adless top\u00adics to dis\u00adcuss when\u00adev\u00ader they met.<\/p>\n

For exam\u00adple, they were both excep\u00adtion\u00adal\u00adly skilled at using col\u00adlage in their pic\u00adture books, a tech\u00adnique no one had pre\u00advi\u00adous\u00adly mas\u00adtered.

How\u00adev\u00ader, Carr employed this tech\u00adnique more thor\u00adough\u00adly, incor\u00adpo\u00adrat\u00ading it into near\u00adly all of his pic\u00adture books. He even wrote tuto\u00adri\u00adals and illus\u00adtrat\u00aded them to teach read\u00aders how to cre\u00adate their own col\u00adlages. Per\u00adhaps because Car\u00adr\u2019s pic\u00adture books resem\u00adbled toys so much, the Calde\u00adcott Medal judges were reluc\u00adtant to award him the grand prize.<\/p>\n

When Carl was 38, edu\u00adca\u00adtor and author Bill Mar\u00adtin Jr. asked him to illus\u00adtrate a sto\u00adry.

Carl found the exhil\u00ada\u00adrat\u00ading feel\u00ading of child\u00adhood draw\u00ading in cre\u00adat\u00ading this book. In his mem\u00ado\u00adry, his kinder\u00adgarten days were a par\u00adadise. He missed his kinder\u00adgarten teacher most. Although he could\u00adn\u2019t remem\u00adber her name or what she looked like, he remem\u00adbered how she great\u00adly admired his draw\u00ading tal\u00adent and even called home to tell his par\u00adents, \u201cThis child is incred\u00adi\u00adbly tal\u00adent\u00aded.

A few months lat\u00ader, \u201cThe Very Hun\u00adgry Cater\u00adpil\u00adlar\u201d was born.

For con\u00adve\u00adnience, I\u2019ll con\u00adtin\u00adue to use \u201cBar\u00adbara\u201d below.
\nBar\u00adbara was Eric Car\u00adle\u2019s sec\u00adond wife, but Eric was her first hus\u00adband. She was approx\u00adi\u00admate\u00adly nine years younger than Eric, and they mar\u00adried in 1973. The New York Times report\u00aded on Bar\u00adbara\u2019s occu\u00adpa\u00adtion as a \u201cfor\u00admer spe\u00adcial edu\u00adca\u00adtion teacher.\u201d Anoth\u00ader arti\u00adcle explained that Bar\u00adbara had helped to estab\u00adlish and teach at Side-by-Side, a spe\u00adcial edu\u00adca\u00adtion school designed to help preschool\u00aders with dis\u00adabil\u00adi\u00adties enter main\u00adstream learn\u00ading envi\u00adron\u00adments. In 2002, Bar\u00adbara also helped her hus\u00adband estab\u00adlish the Eric Car\u00adle Muse\u00adum of Pic\u00adture Book Art, demon\u00adstrat\u00ading her ded\u00adi\u00adca\u00adtion to his wife. How\u00adev\u00ader, Bar\u00adbara and Eric did not have any chil\u00addren.
\nCarl met his first wife in Stuttgart, Ger\u00admany, and they mar\u00adried around 1952. They lat\u00ader moved to New York and divorced in 1964. Dur\u00ading this time, they had a son and a daugh\u00adter. Lat\u00ader reports said that one of them was a masseuse and the oth\u00ader an artist, and nei\u00adther of them had chil\u00addren, so Eric has no bio\u00adlog\u00adi\u00adcal grand\u00adchil\u00addren.
\nInter\u00adest\u00ading\u00adly, Carl once received a book in the mail. The author, a super\u00admod\u00adel named Emme, ded\u00adi\u00adcat\u00aded it to Eric Carl because Eric had played a father fig\u00adure and had a pro\u00adfound influ\u00adence on her dur\u00ading her child\u00adhood (approx\u00adi\u00admate\u00adly 34 years ear\u00adli\u00ader). This was dur\u00ading a peri\u00adod between Eric\u2019s two mar\u00adriages, when he had a rela\u00adtion\u00adship with her moth\u00ader. Eric was over\u00adjoyed to receive the let\u00adter. Although Emme was not his bio\u00adlog\u00adi\u00adcal daugh\u00adter, he and Bar\u00adbara were hap\u00adpy to treat her as their own.
