Resident Potter at the Ceramic Museum and Heritage Center.

Dale’s interest in ceramic art and craft grew from living next door to LePere Pottery in Zanesville, Ohio and later near Roseville, Ohio where family and friends worked for the many potteries there. This interest grew to a passion when he found clay deposited in the glacial moraine around his home while a librarian and administrator at Miami University (Oxford, Ohio). He attended various classes and workshops about clay and glaze. He learned more while working with his family in their pottery and mixes his own glazes. Dale has been a member of the Coop since its inception and currently serves as President of the Board.
