Ruth Finley sat down with Phyliss Dillon and JoAnne Olian on August 6, 2015 to discuss her career and family life. Finley shares that when she was first starting out, she would call companies herself to explain her project, collating the information in a file box. The 1950s, Finley recalls, was an important period for New York fashion as individual designers were beginning to emerge; this shift is reflected in Finley’s calendar from the period. Finley reveals that New York became the first of the “Big Four” to show each season because of the efforts of Calvin Klein and Helmut Lang. The large fashion shows staged by the New York designers, according to Finley, were a result of multiple showroom accidents rather than inspiration from Paris.

She then describes how she learned about the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA), what led up to her being hired by them, and her development of New York Fashion Week.
