Collaborations & Then Some!

Glasscaster with Robert Mickelsen

I'd always wanted to interview Lisa Vogt...she was the first artist I knew who made glass sinks, which were high on my bucket list at the time. She's been working glass since 1988, has published 14 books and numerous articles. Her work has been exhibited in major cities throughout the US.  She's done plenty of Art in Public Places, many commissions, and she's a terrific instructor. We've produced quite a few Glass Expert Webinars™ together. We ran into each other recently at a glass industry event, and finally had the opportunity to do this interview while hiding out in a somewhat cavernous and echoey back room.  You can find out more about Lisa at <a href= "http://www.lisavogt.net">www.lisavogt.net</a> And you can access her recorded webinars here: <a href= "https://www.glasspatterns.com/glass-patterns-quarterly-store/category/209-recorded-webinar-links.html?page=2"> https://www.glasspatterns.com/glass-patterns-quarterly-store/category/209-recorded-webinar-links.html?page=2</a> Enjoy the podcast!

The Unsinkable Lisa Vogt

I was lucky enough to interview Bert Cohen, known to the world as Marble Bert, by phone back in 2011 for a magazine article. Bert believed it was way better for kids to shoot marbles than drugs or each other! He collected hundreds of thousands of marbles in his lifetime, and gave away almost as many! I just located this interview file after all these years....it was missing in action on an old laptop. Sadly, Bert passed away in 2015 at the age of 83. Here he is, digitally immortalized for your listening pleasure. Enjoy this insight into the history and world of marbles!
