EVELYN and THE X-FILES !!!

Back in April 1996, Evelyn had one of her wonderful creations immortalised on The X-Files. Yesterday on Radio National radio show, Life Matters, they talked about 'The Scully Effect' from The X-Files. Have a listen! xx

https://www.abc.net.au/.../lif.../the-scully-effect/12937570

"Almost three decades after The X-Files first aired in 1993, the sci-fi series remains an enduring cult classic.

But for women in STEM (science, technology, engineering and math), the show was about more than just monsters.

Actor Gillian Anderson, as FBI Agent Dana Scully, initiated a real-life phenomenon known as 'The Scully Effect'.

Her character's role as an FBI Agent and a doctor inspired many women to pursue careers in STEM fields."
