In 1945 the Melbourne Argus reported: 'Minna Schuler, one-time well known Melbourne journalist, has just held a one-man show of her paintings in New York. An amazingly versatile person, Minna, who before she went to South America, where she had been living for some years, had a special flair for interior decoration, layout of gardens, and the concocting of creams and lotions according to old still-room recipes. These she sold at a shop in Collins St at one time very aptly called "Simples".'
