After the end of the First World War, Smith received an inheritance that enabled her to move to Cornwall, an area popular with artists. Recently, the tarot community has been correcting this injustice by referring to the deck as the Rider Waite Smith (RWS) or Waite Smith deck (WS). She not only didn’t benefit financially from the deck, but the publisher’s name was put on the deck instead of hers. He chose Pamela for the job because of her talent, their common membership in the Golden Dawn, and because he believed her clairvoyant abilities would help her perceive the higher mystical truths he was attempting to convey with his deck. In 1909, Waite paid Smith a flat fee for illustrating his Tarot deck. Smith wrote and illustrated several books, and designed the Rider-Waite-Smith deck of Tarot cards for Arthur Edward Waite in 1909-designs still used today. After her graduation four years later she returned to England, where she became an illustrator and theatrical designer. There, at age 15, she enrolled at the relatively new Pratt Institute and studied art under Arthur Wesley Dow.
In 1893, Smith moved to Brooklyn to be with her father. Her father’s job with the West India Improvement Company stationed the family throughout Europe and North America’s eastern coast, and after her mother’s death when Smith was ten she was taken in by family friends who performed in the Lyceum traveling theatre. Born in Pimlico, Middlesex (now London), Smith was the daughter of American merchant Charles Edward Smith and Corinne Colman.
Pamela Coleman Smith was an artist, illustrator, and writer.
