From The Ark:
“…Throwing Curves delves into the life and art of Eva Zeisel, a Jewish woman born into the Hungarian aristocracy in 1906. It is a poignant and revealing look at a feisty, talented, independent woman who rose from hardworking apprentice to head designer in European factories, only to become a political prisoner facing execution in Stalin’s Russia and a fugitive fleeing Hitler’s persecution in Nazi Austria.”
