PETERSON, SUSAN Lucy M. Lewis, American Indian Potter
Kodansha International, 1992. Large Softcover. Very Good. Nice bright copy with some minor shelf wear to book edges. Dust jacket clean with minor rubbing. 1992 Large Softcover. 218 pp. "The Acoma pueblo is the oldest continuously inhabited settlement in North America. This Indian community, which probably dates back over a millennium, was home to one of America's most talented and innovative potters—Lucy M. Lewis (d. 1992). Born around the turn of the century, Lewis rose from humble origins to become one of the most important craftspersons of this century. Susan Peterson's intimate biography is a major accomplishment. It captures the essence of this inspirational woman with candor and affection. Over 220 color plates (and 120 black-and-white photos) convey the life and work of Lucy and her family. Lucy M. Lewis: American Indian Potter not only offers insights into the sources and milieu of Lewis' vast talent, but documents the achievements of one of America's greatest native craftswomen.".
