She was one of six children, for whom their Catholic parents paid to be well educated. Carmen went to the New Hall Convent School in Chelmsford. The elder brother died during World War one, one sister became a nun and another brother emigrated. Carmen and her sisters Teresa and Agnes Dillon (known as Una) were left to fulfil their parent's ambitions for them.[2] Dillon initially worked as an architect, but in 1934 she was invited to join the film industry.[3] This built on her enthusiasm for acting and drawing. She became an art director and production designer, and won an Oscar for Laurence Olivier's 1948 film of Hamlet.[1] It was said that for twenty-five years she was the only woman art director in the British film industry.[5] None of the three Dillon sisters married, and they spent 42 years together in a large flat in Kensington. Tess Dillon had led the physics department at Queen Elizabeth College.[4] In 1985 Carmen retired to Hove with her sister Una, who had founded Dillons Booksellers.[2] Carmen outlived her sister and died in 2000 with no survivors.[5] Production designer/Art director
