Rebecca Eaton is the Emmy, Peabody and Golden Globe winning producer of the series Masterpiece and Mystery on PBS. She is also a child of Hollywood’s Golden Age. Her mother, Katherine Emery, created the role of Karen on Broadway in Lillian Hellman’s The Children’s Hour then came out to Hollywood where she appeared in three of my favorite films of the 1940s: Isle of the Dead, The Private Affairs of Bel Ami and The Locket. A self-described “bookworm with a penchant for English literature”, Rebecca is also a wonderful story teller. Her latest show, Downton Abbey, just won Emmys for best mini-series, best writer (Julian Fellowes) and best supporting actress (Maggie Smith). It returns to PBS in January 2012.
