Charles Dana Gibson (14 September 1867 - 23 December 1944) was an American illustrator and artist best known for his creation of the "Gibson Girl", a stylish and independent woman who became a cultural icon in the early 1900s. He was a prominent figure in the Golden Age of American illustration, and his work appeared in many popular magazines of the time, including Life, Harper's Weekly, and Collier's Weekly. In addition to illustrating, Gibson painted portraits and landscapes and was a member of the National Academy of Design.
