William Frederick Timmins was born May 23, 1915 in Chicago, Illinois.
His father, Harry L. Timmins (1887-1963), was a celebrated magazine illustrator and co-owner with Frank H. Young (1888-1964) of a successful Chicago advertising agency called Young
Timmins Advertising Illustration Studios. In 1923 Timmins and Young co-founded the American Academy of Art in Chicago. His father's impressive career brought the family a prosperous and privileged lifestyle, which included pleasure trips to Paris and London.
In 1934 he began to commute by Metro North train to New York City, where he studied at the Art Students League on West 57th Street. He also took classes at the National Academy of Design on Fifth Avenue near 89th Street.
In 1935 he began to study at the Grand Central School of Art, located on the sky-lit top floor of Grand Central Station Terminal. This was the same station he used for his daily commute.
In 1935 he began to sell pen and ink story illustrations as well as painted covers to NYC publishers of pulp magazines. During the second half of the 1930s his work appeared in Western Story, Dime Sports, Clues Detective Stories, Thrilling Western, and All Aces Magazine.
He and his wife moved to a home on Spectacle Lane in Wilton, CT. This area of Connecticut had become a popular artist community. He socialized with several artist neighbors, such as Benjamin Kimberly Prins (1902-1980), Tom Lovell (1909-1997), Richard Lyon (1913-2002), Al Parker (1906-1985), Rolf Klep (1904-1981), R. G. Harris (1911-2007).
During the 1940s his cover illustrations appeared on pulp magazines, such as The Shadow, Clues Detective Stories, Wild West Weekly, and Astounding Science Fiction. All these were published by Street
Smith.
In 1944 the family moved to Darien, CT. At first the artist worked in a rented studio in nearby Norwalk, CT, but after a while he converted a vacant family room into an art studio and worked at home. After the war he drew story illustrations for Family Circle and Liberty Magazine.
In 1948 his father, Harry L. Timmins, and his brother, Harry L. Timmins, Jr., moved to California to open a lithography business in Hollywood.
During the 1950s he illustrated several books for children that were published by Rand McNally, such as Cowboys, Davy Crockett, Wild Bill Hickok, Robin Hood, Pony Express, Here Comes the Band, Super Circus, Emmett Kelly, Little Cub Scout, and Look! A Parade.
In 1959 he contributed illustrations to The Boy Scout Handbook along with Norman Rockwell, Charles Waterhouse, and Donald N. Ross.
In 1966 he retired from illustration and concentrated on painting landscapes for fine art galleries in California, Arizona, and Nevada. His brother, Harry L. Timmins, Jr., opened an art gallery on Cedar Drive in Camarillo, CA, and handled paintings by his talented family members and friends. William Timmins died in San Francisco at the age of sixty-nine on January 9, 1985.
