Tinker Bell Through the Years
Tinker Bell is a fictional character from British playwright Sir James M. Barrie's original play "Peter Pan" where she was portrayed as a flying light beaming from offstage.
Animator Marc Davis gave life to the light by drawing Tink as a mischievious pixie complete with womanly curves and a seductive pout to match.
Live action model Margaret Kerry helped breath full life into Marc's sketches and made Tinker Bell real.
And for the record, no, Tinker Bell was not modeled after Marilyn Monroe. That's just an urban legend. Read about it on Snopes.
Tinker Bell is misspelled quite often as just one word "Tinkerbell" but in the film, Captain Hook refers to her as "Miss Bell" therefore suggesting that her name is two words, a first and last name.
I always found it a bit ironic that a Disney character described as "a jealous woman with seductive curves" would end up becoming the role model and hero for young girls all over the world. But at the same time I think of it as an answer for a strong feminine character.
