Many of you will remember the remarkable Allison Katzman (photo attached), a member who died several years ago. In honor of Allison’s 100th birthday (January 25) her daughter Abby is making a film about the world-famous doll Blythe that Allison designed. The doll inspired a global movement of artistic expression. A crowd funding event for the film will take place on February 25—more information to follow. See the attached announcement.
