Eleanor Hansen Nichols, Wisconsin - Tau, Woman of the Year 1979

She was a designer, craftsman and teacher of the fine art of metalwork. Delta Zeta was the beneficiary of her work as she designed the first Grace Mason Lundy bracelet, the Evelyn Costello President's plaque and the Woman of the Year medallion itself. Through her art, she has crystallized many moments, creating links between the past and future.
