Remembering Kathleen Tyson Dunne

By Alexa Williams

Our beloved neighbor and renowned artist passed on April 28, 2026, at 93.

Kathleen (Kathy) had many friends and collectors in Hollywoodland where she was inspired to begin her noteworthy painting career after moving here in the mid ‘80s. She was partial to landscapes which featured beautifully portrayed nature with the colorful flora and homes in her surrounding hills. She started her career path in advertising, creating storyboards for Mattel Toy Co. and she also was a children’s book illustrator before evolving into an artist of world renown reputation.
