... that Beverly Russell's 1992 book, Women of Design: Contemporary American Interiors, was the first survey of women interior designers? Source: Turpin, John (September 1, 2007). "The History of Women in Interior Design: A Review of the Literature". Journal of Interior Design. 33 (1): 5.
Overall: Thank you for this - I'm pleased to see this one, as I still have a framed page from the British version of House and Garden (probably mostly the same as the US one), dating from the time when Russell was there (a reproduced old horticultural painting of a bourbon rose). I also avidly read (OK, looked at the pictures in) Interiors mag in the 80s and 90s. It was a treasure. So, good for her. All clear, so good to go. Storye book (talk) 17:37, 12 January 2022 (UTC)
