Margaret Ursula Mee, MBE (born 22 May 1909 – 30 November 1988)〔Obituary, ''The Times'', 3 December 1988〕 was a British botanical artist who specialized in plants from the Brazilian Amazon rainforest. She was also one of the first environmentalists to draw attention to the impact of large-scale mining and deforestation on the Amazon Basin. ==Early life== Margaret Ursula Brown was born in Whitehill, Chesham in 1909. She attended Dr Challoner's Grammar School, Amersham, followed by The School of Art, Science and Commerce, Watford. After a short period of teaching in Liverpool she decided to travel abroad. In 1933 she was in Berlin and witnessed the burning of the Reichstag and subsequent Jewish boycott which confirmed her left-wing views. During the Second World War she worked in Hatfield as a draughtswoman at the de Havilland aircraft factory.〔(Margaret Mee profile at the Oxford Dictionary of National Biography )〕
