Shaped By Her Hands: Potter Maria Martinez
The most renowned Native American Indian potter of her time, Maria Povika Martinez learned pottery as a child under the guiding hands of her ko-ōo, her aunt. She grew up to discover a new firing technique that turned her pots black and shiny, and made them ― and Maria ― famous. This inspiring story of family and creativity, co-authored by Martinez's eldest great-grandchild, illuminates how Maria's belief in sharing her love of clay brought success and joy from her New Mexico Pueblo to people all across the country.
