In 1942, homeopathic physician Guy Beckley Stearns and de Evia contributed an essay called "The New Synthesis", For the Laurie's Domestic Medicine medical guide.

This is pointed up rather persuasively in the portfolio on Edgar de Evia as a 'master of still life' and in the one devoted to the work of Réne Groebli.

"[3] Melvin Sokolsky, a fashion photographer who has created images for Harpers Bazaar and Vogue, considered Edgar de Evia one of his earliest influences, saying, "I discovered that Edgar was paid $4,000 for a Jell-O ad, and the idea of escaping from my tenement dwelling became an incredible dream and inspiration.

"[4] De Evia also produced commissioned photographic portraits of individuals, including Polish-American violinist Roman Totenberg[5] and the American fashion designer Ralph Lauren.

[6] De Evia's work appeared on Applied Photography,[7][8] Architectural Digest,[9] Good Housekeeping,[10] Shaggy Lamb Fashion,[11] and New York Magazine.
