Talk:Eva Zeisel

Striker or Stricker?

According to http://www.evazeisel.org/who_is_eva_zeisel.html and Judith Szapor: The Hungarian Pocahontas: The Life and Times of Laura Polanyi Stricker, 1882-1959 (ISBN 0880335629) it is "Stricker". "Stricker" is a not so uncommon family name in Austria, "Striker" looks more like an English name. --NeoUrfahraner 07:18, 27 September 2007 (UTC)

Don't know whether she or anyone else in the family ever went by Stricker, but she signed her letter to The New Yorker, published January 18, 2010, as Eva Striker Zeisel. Publius3 (talk) 07:10, 3 February 2010 (UTC)

Dug around a bit more and found that both The New Yorker and the New York Times ran articles using the 'Striker' spelling in previous decades. These support the Striker spelling for both Eva Striker Zeisler and her mother Laura Polanyi Striker. Neither the Times nor the New Yorker has ever used the 'Stricker' spelling as far as I can tell. Laura Polanyi Striker had her work published using that spelling in the 1950s.

cause of death not stated in article

i realize she was 105 years old, however that alone is not a cause of death. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.85.14.106 (talk) 09:56, 1 January 2012 (UTC)
