In 1983, with her children growing up, Eva followed her dream to be a writer, when Hollywood calls again to become a second Sherry Lansing as an Assistant Producer at the Burbank Studios. But, two weeks later, instead of being a producer, Eva is signed to co-star with Ray Danton in “Pursuit,“ and finally, “Apache Blood,” in Arizona. While there, she is a guest star in several “New Dick Van Dyke Shows'', and to the delight of Dyke’s parties and co-host, Hope Lange, she remains in Arizona filming before returning to Los Angeles.
