Photograph article dated March 11, 1964 partially reads, "Interior designer Muriel Hagan creates a menu for a dinner party much as she would the decor for a room...In private life Miss Hagan is the wife of Robert Rosencrans of Woodland Hills. Several times a year the couple invites from 10 to 15 guests into their home for a dinner party. 'I never give a party unless I have a lot of time to prepare for it,' she explained. 'It's like decorating a room. If you're going to do something, you should go all out, and that takes time...' Miss Hagan specializes in contemporary furnishings. She does private homes and offices and has had her own studio in Encino for nine years...She is chairman of the American Institute of Interior Designers in the Valley area and education chairman of A.I.D. for Southern California and the West Coast."
