Marking International Women’s Day 2023, the national women’s advocacy group Beverly Willis Architecture Foundation released its debut episode of Season 2 of the acclaimed audio documentary series, New Angle: Voice. Since March 8 and following a highly successful first season, New Angle: Voice continues to document the lives and legacies of pioneering yet under-recognized women in the history of architecture and design, beginning with the story of groundbreaking designer Ray Eames.
In 2022, the audio documentary series, which blossomed into a national hit with tens of thousands of dedicated listeners, won major grants from the National Endowment for the Arts, the National Endowment for the Humanities and the prestigious Graham Foundation. The second season’s premiere on March 8, International Women’s Day, presented an insightful and rich narrated history of Eames (1912-1988), whose pioneering contributions in the arts, architecture, graphic design, textile design and furniture innovation have had a profound effect on the trajectory of those fields.
