Harvey K. Littleton, Pioneer in Glassworks, Dies at 91

Harvey K. Littleton, an artist who helped found the so-called studio glass movement in the United States, developing and teaching do-it-yourself techniques that freed glassblowing from the cumbersome protocols of factory production and made molten glass almost as easy to work with in the studio as wet clay, died on Dec. 13 in Spruce Pine, N.C. He was 91.
