Created in 2010 by the National Museum of Wildlife Art in the tradition of such prestigious childrenâs book illustrator honors as the Caldecott, Coretta Scott King and Hans Christian Andersen awards, the Bull-Bransom Award is named for Charles Livingston Bull and Paul Bransom, among the first American artist-illustrators to specialize in wildlife subjects. Both artists had tremendous impact on younger masters of wildlife art including Bob Kuhn; both created numerous childrenâs books during their careers, including contributing illustrations to different editions of Jack Londonâs classic Call of the Wild; and both are well represented in the National Museum of Wildlife Artâs permanent collection.
