Beverley Jackson was the author of six books on the history of Chinese costume and custom including the prize-winning Splendid Slippers (Random House) on the history of Chinese footbinding.
She also authored the book Dolls of Spain which is based from her research on the dolls of Spain and from photographs she took of the dolls beginning in 1968 before many collections were broken up or destroyed in floods or fires.
She has lectured in Universities and Museums internationally, was a world traveler as well as a photojournalist and a newspaper columnist.
Sadly, Beverley passed away on August 6, 2020 at the age of 91. She will be sorely missed.
