Charlotte Pardi: Hello. My name is Charlotte Pardi. I'm Danish illustrator. I would like to tell you the story about my last name.
Many years ago, my great great grandmother was a maid at a very rich family, and she became pregnant with a younger son. She had to leave before anybody found out. She gave birth to a little boy, but she could not name him after his father, so she bought the last name Pardi and called him Oliver Pardi. That's the short story about my last name.
