In 1983, Barbara Heinrich received a Rotary scholarship, which allowed her to study in the United States, where she completed her Masters of Fine Arts degree at the Rochester Institute of Technology. Then, finally, the designer devoted herself full time to her passion: she founded a studio and moved to Pittsford, New York.<\/p>\n
