Waddy (January 7, 1909-May 24, 2003) was an American artist, printmaker, activist, and editor, based in Los Angeles. ==Early life and education== Willanna Ruth Gilliam was born in Lincoln, Nebraska in 1909, and raised in Minneapolis, Minnesota, daughter of John Moses Gilliam and Willie Anna Choran Gilliam.〔("Ruth G.

She attended the University of Minnesota to train for teaching, but left school to work as a domestic servant in Chicago, to help support her family during the Depression. During World War II she moved with her young daughter to Los Angeles, California to work as a riveter at Douglas Aircraft Corporation. After the war she worked at a county hospital, where one of her co-workers was designer Noah Purifoy.〔(Karen Anne Mason, "Ruth G.
