- Eckstein appears as a character in Joseph Skibell's 2010 novel, A Curable Romantic.
- The song "Emma Eckstein's Nose Job" was released as a single in 2010 by Danish musician Anders Thode.

Famous quotes containing the words cultural and/or influences:
“Somehow we have been taught to believe that the experiences of girls and women are not important in the study and understanding of human behavior. If we know men, then we know all of humankind. These prevalent cultural attitudes totally deny the uniqueness of the female experience, limiting the development of girls and women and depriving a needy world of the gifts, talents, and resources our daughters have to offer.”
—Jeanne Elium (20th century)
“Whoever influences the child’s life ought to try to give him a positive view of himself and of his world. The child’s future happiness and his ability to cope with life and relate to others will depend on it.”
—Bruno Bettelheim (20th century)
