Biographical description from Jeffrey Thomas Fine Art checklist for exhibition at Hauser & Wirth Institute: - In 1952, Mary won the first prize in the "McCall's Kitchen Contest." - Contestants were required to redesign their own kitchens, submitting highly detailed plans. - The first prize-winners had their kitchens remodeled, down to the dishes, glasses, and silverware they had specified; their kitchens were featured in the July 1952 issue of McCall's magazine, with numerous "Before" and "After" photos.
