Excellent film on a brilliant designer

This films documents Eva's amazing life. She is still designing today at age 99. There are interviews with Eva, her family and others in the design world. Vintage photos and footage are well integrated. She was born Eva Stricker in Budapest. She broke ground as a woman in industry and faced extreme challenges.

I purchased a DVD copy from Citizen Films. I believe this film debuted at a Hall China Collectors conference several years ago. Eva designed a line of dinnerware for Hall China in the '50s called Tomorrows Classic, which is now has been reintroduced by a pottery England. She continues to design new items for numerous firms/manufacturers. It's wonderful to see her being acknowledged for the beauty she has created through this film, books and current exhibitions.
