Agnes Miller Parker (1895–1980) was an engraver, illustrator and painter in oil and tempera. She is especially known as a twentieth century wood-engraver thanks to her collaboration with H. E. Bates, which resulted in two outstanding wood engraved books: Through the Woods (1936) and Down the River (1937), published by Victor Gollancz.
