Around the same time, Ray was studying at Bennetts Women’s College in New York. After graduation in 1933 she studied abstract expressionism under Hanz Hofmann becoming the founder of American Abstract Artists Group 1936 with pieces becoming permanent placements at Riverside Museum, Manhatten. In 1938 Charles had been invited by Eliel Saarinen’s eldest to move to Michigan, Eliel Saarinen was a great influence for Charles Eames and so Charles, his wife Catherine Woermann and Daughter moved to study architecture at Cranbrook Academy of Arts.
