Eve Alwyn-Hinchman was born August 15, 1914 and died on November 16, 2005. She was a successful television and radio personality with her mother Laurie Alwyn, both in Boston M.A. and Fort Lauderdale FL. Eve and Lauri hosted radio shows in the Baltimore MD area for over 7 years before moving to Florida where they hosted a radio and later a Television show in the Palm Beach FL area for many years. Eve was married to Roger Hinchman (b. November 28, 1912; d. January 1, 1991) on June 1, 1964 after the moved to Florida. Lauri, a health educator and nutritionist, also wrote advice articles and pamphlets as well as taught classes on health, fitness, and beauty.

The materials from Eve and Laurie’s show consist of newspaper clippings, pictures/scrapbooks, pamphlets, as well as some letters and correspondence.

There is also information regarding a development in Florida that he and Eve owned called Island Apartments. There is other miscellaneous Hinchman family information including deeds, legal documents, pictures, and information from the Hinchman Family book project.
