Susanna(h) Hornebolt or Horenbout (1503–1545) was the first known female artist in England.[1]
She was an illuminator, and daughter of Gerard Hornebolt. She was the sister of Lucas Horenbout.

Two years after Parker's death in 1537, she married John Gilman, who was, or became, Serjeant of the King's Woodyard.
