Ve Elizabeth Cadie

Ve Elizabeth Cadie (1893–August 2, 1956) was an early twentieth century American illustrator of children's books and magazines, a stylist, and a designer.

Career
She worked as an illustrator for the P. F. Volland Company and Rand McNally & Company, and as a designer for W. S. George Pottery Company, where she was responsible for the "Calico" design. Her images appeared on the cover of magazines like Child Life in the 1930s. In articles about design for the home, she was described as a "prominent designer", "whose originality is causing quite a stir in art and industry".

Cadie obtained a patent for her invention of a heat insulating handle for small home appliances and for a coffee pot design, in 1945 and 1951 respectively.
