She became the Office Manager, and was named Director of Operations in 1998, putting her in the top tier of SXSW's management. Her professional background included time spent at the Dallas Theater Center, where she performed in a production of What Price Glory? and worked in costume design on The Tempest. Later she was employed as a flight attendant for American Airlines and as Executive Director for the Center for Battered Women. Eve was part of the Lubbock migration to Austin in the '70s, led by artists Butch Hancock, Jimmie Dale Gilmore and Joe Ely. She and her family were very close to Tommy and Charlene Hancock and their daughters, whose musical acts the Supernatural Family Band and the Texana Dames, were the center of a large extended circle of friends and relatives. Eve's open-hearted West Texas demeanor made her a friendly voice and a natural organizer for SXSW. She implemented the first health care package for SXSW employees and was deeply involved in forming SXSW's sustainability policy, which led to the founding of SXSW ECO, our annual event focused on environmental issues. Eve retired in 2010, and became Director Emeritus, but remained involved in SXSW activities. She is survived by her daughter Erin McArthur and son Aiden Cohen. Eve at the first SXSW Eco in 2011
