Polly Hill was the wife of George Hill and first attended the University of Illinois, followed by Syracuse University. The couple met during their studies at Syracuse and then studied together in Paris. She was a teacher at her husband’s art school and illustrated poetry books. Her early interest was in European architecture. Polly later specialized in etchings, partly hand-colored, in addition to lithographs and watercolors. Her favorite motifs were figures and sometimes satirical genre scenes, populated interiors, landscapes and town views. Her 1932 entry Skater is listed as a drypoint etching in a Chicago exhibition catalog.
