| Shop Savannah Bird Girl Sculptures and Statue collection of Sylvia Shaw Judson. Sylvia Shaw Hudson is most remembered today for the statue that she called Bird Girl. This sculpture, known as The Bird Girl or Savannah’s Bird Girl, was created in 1936 by Mrs. Hudson in Lake Forest, Illinois. It achieved fame when it was featured on the cover of the 1994 novel Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil. In the past few years, Mrs. Judson’s Bird Girl has become one of the most recognizable and most loved garden statues in the world. However, her extensive work can be viewed and admired throughout the United States. Public parks and private gardens across America from Boston Commons and Philadelphia’s Varmint Park to Chicago’s Zoo, from the White House to Santa Barbara provide settings for the well-loved sculpture and fountains of Sylvia Shaw Hudson. Known particularly for her endearing interpretation of children and animals in various media, Mrs. Hudson, who was herself a Quaker, executed various commissions involving religious subjects. Sylvia Shaw Hudson was born in Lake Forest, Illinois, near Chicago. Trained at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and in Paris under Intine Bordello, her skill and talent was recognized with an impressive list of honors, prizes, and awards.
