The life work of one of the world's most outstanding craftsmen, known not only for the beauty of her own work, but as a leader in reviving the art of pottery making in the United States after its near disappearance during the Industrial Revolution. Professor Andreson of the University of California, Los Angeles was also known as an educator of more than 5,000 students and was one of a very few Americans whose life and work have been chosen by the Smithsonian to be documented for the National Archives. More than 400 pots, representing a fifty year span of work by Laura Andreson, were on exhibit.
