Call for entries for the Eva Haller Women Transforming Media Award, with FOUR images of Eva Haller corresponding to her different AGES, from black and white photo of little girl with pudgy cheeks and braids, then with a broad forehead in what looks like early womanhood and hair brushed back in a slight wave, eyes looking somewhat more close set, then in full womahood, I'd guess 30s or 40s with bright red lipstick and curly hair, and possibly some work done, bigger more rounded eye lids, and finally in the silver age, with Glasgow Calednoia University phd hat cocked jauntily on her head, a scroll, leopard print peeking through and a big smile.
