In the 1960's, Evelyn and Arthur became friends with George Nakashima, the dean of the American Crafts Movement, and over the next thirty years as patrons and collaborators inspired George to develop his singular vision. The collection they built is now housed in museums around the world. In 2005, Arthur and Evelyn moved to Arizona where their lives continued to be filled with music and art. They were patrons of the Heard Museum and ASU as well as encouraging many musicians, including the string quartet, Tetris. Evelyn recently completed her autobiography, "A Beautiful Life Lived in Harmony," a testament to the world she built with her husband, Arthur. Arthur preceded her in death in 2012. Evelyn is survived by a son, a daughter and two grandchildren. The family requests that memorials be sent to the Greater Princton Youth Orchestra or the American Diabetes Association.
