Redux-form-material-ui: can't seem to set a default value for the datepicker .

[jasan-s]

I'm passing in values in this.props.initialize() function , the textfield displays it just fine. the values do show up in the form reducer just not in the datePicker field on the page.
Is it because DatePicker requires an object, and redux-form defaults to ''

Feel stupid :) was passing in a string not a date object. converted to a object through new Date()
