Evelyn Prebensen Harrison was born the daughter of a Norwegian diplomat. She and her family survived five years of German occupation in Norway during WWII, after which her father was appointed ambassador to England (for 12 years) and later to Italy. Life in these embassies gave Evelyn the unique opportunity to meet and get to know royalty, like Queen Elizabeth of England, King Haakon, King Olav and King Harald of Norway, as well as many political leaders such as Winston Churchill. Her life-threatening circulatory issues took her around the globe in search of cures. During her travels, she often stayed in palaces and country houses where friends and famous personalities gifted her with charms for her cherished bracelet. Each charm tells a story of the loyal friends and family that carried her through her chronic illness. See how she not only endured but triumphed! Thanks to the warm climate and proximity to family and friends, she continues to live in South Florida. Having survived more than ninety years, she still considers hers to be A Charmed Life.
