Life and career

Born in Milan, Nidasio graduated from the Liceo scientifico in her hometown and later from the Brera Academy.[1][2][3] In the 1950s she started a long collaboration with the children magazine Corriere dei Piccoli, for which she worked for over 35 years, creating a large number of popular characters, starting from Alibella and Gelsomino.[1][2][4] She is best known for the series Valentina Mela Verde [it] and its spin-off Stefi [it], which between late 1960s and early 1990s recounted in a realistic, tender and humorous way the everyday life of two adolescent sisters of their time.[1][2][3][5] Her comics have been published in a number of countries, including France, Brazil and Argentina.[3]

Nidasio collaborated with Corriere della Sera as a cartoonist and an illustrator, and illustrated numerous children books, including several Astrid Lindgren's novels.[2][6] She also worked in advertising, notably creating the Piccolo mugnaio bianco ("Little white miller") character, i.e. the mascot of the 1980s Mulino Bianco advertising campaigns.[3][6]

During her career Nidasio was recipient of numerous awards, including the Yellow Kid Award in 1972 and the Premio Andersen [it] in 1987 and in 2001.[3]
