By Hildegard Günzel

With more than 200 award-winning designs and four lifetime awards (including DOLLS magazine’s Lifetime Achievement Award) for her work, it’s no wonder that Hildegard Günzel’s dollmaking career has passed the half-century mark. In her new book Magic World — Kunstform Puppe, she relates some of her personal stories about her experiences over the course of her 50-year doll journey, lavishly illustrated with photos of her creations.
