Following training at the Chouinard Art Institute in Los Angeles, Theadora Van Runkle started out as an illustrator for store advertisements and catalogues. She first worked in the motion picture industry as a sketch artist on the epic film HAWAII (1967). Van Runkle made a lasting name for herself, as a motion picture costume designer, when her first film, BONNIE & CLYDE, with her 1930's costumes for Faye Dunaway, Warren Beatty, Gene Hackman, Estelle Parsons, Gene Wilder, and Michael J. Pollard started an exciting international fashion trend. Van Runkle went on to become a top designer in her field, creating costumes for all the great stars of our time - Lucille Ball (MAME); Peter Sellers (I LOVE YOU ALICE B. TOKLAS); Al Pacino, Robert DeNiro, Dianne Keaton, Robert Duvall (GODFATHER II); Liza Minelli, Robert DeNiro (NEW, YORK, NEW YORK); Raquel Welch, John Huston (MYRA BRECKINGRIDGE); Steve McQueen (BULLIT); Warren Beatty, Julie Christie and Dyan Cannon (HEAVEN CAN WAIT); Ryan O'Neil, Burt Reynolds, Tatum O'Neil (NICKELODEON); Julie Andrews, William Holden, Shelly Winters, Larry Hagman (S.O.B); Steve Martin and Bernadette Peters (THE JERK); Dolly Parton (BEST LITTLE WHOREHOUSE IN TEXAS), and more... 36 major motion pictures in all!
