Biography
Brooke was born at Ryde on the Isle of Wight in January 1905 and attended Bruntsfield High School on the island.[1] From 1923 to 1926 she studied at the Croydon School of Art and then at the Royal College of Art in London until 1929, where her teachers included Randolph Schwabe.[2] Throughout her subsequent career, Brooke created portraits in both oil and chalk but mainly concentrated on writing and illustrating books on historical costumes and fashion.[1][2][3] She also wrote articles for a number of journals and was elected a member of the Women's Press Club.[1]
In 1931, Brooke married Patrick Hopegood MacDowell but later divorced.[4] They had a son, Michael.[5] In 1944, she married William Hugh Giffard and the couple settled near Honiton in Devon.[1][2]
