Antonia Yeoman

Antonia Yeoman born Beryl Botterill Thompson sometimes known as Anton (24 July 1907 – 30 June 1970) was an Australian-English cartoonist and illustrator.

Life Yeoman was born in Esk in Queensland, Australia as Beryl Botterill Thompson. Her father was an English rancher and he oversaw a sheep farm.

Yeoman's first popular cartoons were as part of the partnership with her brother, Harold Underwood Thompson. Together they published under the name of "Anton" in the late 1930s. In time her brother found other interests directing an advertising company but Yeoman continued on alone. Yeoman worked regularly for The Tatler, Men Only, The New Yorker, London's Evening Standard, Private Eye, Lilliput, and Punch. She was the only woman in Punch's Toby Club.

In addition to illustrating 17 books, Yeoman also produced two collections of her own works: Anton's Amusement Arcade (1947) and High Life and Low Life (1952).

Yeoman died in Chelsea in 1970.
