Selma Burke ( 1900-1995)
Selma Hortense Burke is an African-American sculptor who achieved a high level of national recognition during her lifetime. She received national recognition for her relief portrait of Franklin Delano Roosevelt which was the model for his image on the dime. She was committed to teaching art to others, so she established the Selma Burke Art School in New York City and opened the Selma Burke Art Center in Pittsburgh.

I’m 58 and just started taking my first art history class through the eyes of a sculpture I came upon your article on Artist statement( Clay Times 2006). Thanks
Great post, inspiring. Amazing how much can be gleaned from a photo of an artist at work.
We are what we eat! We resemble what we make! Nothing more …and nothing less.
