Patricia Zipprodt

One of the most well-respected and prolific costume designers of the American stage, Patricia Zipprodt racked up 10 Tony Award nominations and three wins over a long and distinguished career. While there were the occasional forays into film and television (i.e., "The Graduate" 1967; the 1973 ABC adaptation of "The Glass Menagerie"), she was most at home crafting stage wardrobes that carefully reflected the characters, whether it be for grand opera, musical theater or a Broadway boulevard comedy.
