BiographyDoris Kathleen Flinn was born at 12 Oak Avenue, Chorlton-cum-Hardy, Lancashire, on 15 October 1892, the daughter of Arthur Flinn (b. ca. 1858), an agent for a silk merchants, and Martha Hannah Barton.[1][2] In 1911 she moved to Manchester and from 1914 to 1920 she studied at Manchester School of Art, living at 1 King's Road Alexandra Park, Manchester, and was a member of the Manchester Academy of Fine Arts.[1] She met Joan Tuckett (1895-1957) by 1917.

Flinn and Tuckett were also international hockey players and trained as pilots. The plaster model for a portrait head of Tuckett made by Flinn in 1925 is now at the Bristol Museum. In 1935 Flinn sculpted "Lawyer, Athlete, Aviator, Woman", a piece about Tuckett. By 1923 Flinn was living at 5 Beaufort Buildings, Clifton, Bristol, Tuckett's family home, and ran a sculpture studio in Boyce's Avenue, Clifton, Bristol.[1] In the early 1920s Flinn worked on some of the carvings for the Wills Memorial Building. In 1930 they purchased The Rookery, a large stone-built XVIII century house at East Dundry, Bristol, where they lived there together until Tuckett's death in 1957.
