Show Notes

If you've been to Sacramento, California; or Kalamazoo, Michigan; or the Museo Internationale della Ceramica in Northern Italy; there's a decent chance you've seen her work.

In this episode of the American Attic, we sat down with the artist responsible for the César Chavez Memorial in Sacramento and a host of other works across California and beyond. Along with her current clay portrayal of Sacramento writer Joan Didion, we discuss the origins of inspiration, historical projects in public art and other topics

 So roll up your sleeves and join us for a refreshingly insightful glimpse of one who takes a literal hands on approach to history.
