| biography:
| Woodworker, born in Rochester, New York, USA. A professor of both architecture and physics at Georgia Institute of Technology, as well as a practising architect, he had been turning wood since he was 15, and in 1976 he began to devote himself full-time to the craft. He is noted for the large bowls that he treated and finished after turning them out of green Southern woods. His largest stands 45 in high, is 30 in in diameter, and weighs 75 pounds. Basic in shape, they are almost sculptural in the purity of their form and material, and his works are owned by many museums and private collectors. |
