Elyne Mitchell

Sibyl Elyne Mitchell (* 30. Dezember 1913 in Melbourne, Victoria, Australien; † 4. März 2002 in Corryong, Victoria, Australien) war eine australische Kinderbuchautorin.

Leben

Mitchell war die Tochter des australischen Generals Harry Chauvel, der im Ersten Weltkrieg die ANZAC Mounted Division während der Eroberung des damals zum Osmanischen Reich gehörenden Palästina führte. Sie erhielt ihre Ausbildung an der St. Catherine's School in Toorak und heiratete 1935 den Rechtsanwalt Thomas Walter Mitchell. Das Paar zog in die Australischen Alpen, die Snowy Mountains. In der ländlichen Umgebung erlernte sie das Reiten und Skifahren. Berichten zufolge soll sie die erste Frau gewesen sein, die die gesamte Strecke auf dem Westhang der Snowy Mountains auf Skiern als Abfahrt schaffte. Das Paar hatte in den folgenden Jahren vier Kinder.

Mitchell begann in den 1940er Jahren zu schreiben. Themen waren vorrangig die Natur und die Geschichte ihrer Umgebung in den Australischen Alpen, aber auch die Geschichte ihrer Familie und der Reitertruppen Australiens in den vergangenen Kriegen. Ihre Fotografien fanden Eingang in verschiedenen Veröffentlichungen und auch in die Kinderbücher, die sie ab den 1950er Jahren mit großem, auch internationalen Erfolg, veröffentlichte. Eine erfolgreiche Serie von Kinderbüchern erzählte von Snowy Brumby einem Palominohengst und seinen Nachfahren.
