Beryl Mortimer (c.1928-2001) was a renowned Foley artist that worked in British cinema from the 1950s to the 1990s. Her most acclaimed projects, though she went uncredited on many, include Lawrence of Arabia (1962), The Gold Diggers (1983), and 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968). She was affectionately known as ‘Beryl the Boot’ for her expertise in recreating footsteps on the screen.
