Meeting Textile Artist Jennifer Gould

Jennifer Ackerman-Haywood visited with Jennifer Gould and wrote a wonderful story which was in the Sunday, December 2, 2007 issue of the Grand Rapids Press.

P.S. Read what she wrote

I am honored that my work has been included in the recently published Lark Book, "500 HANDMADE DOLLS: Modern Explorations of the Human Form." This is a real gem of a book and I am honored to be in such extremely talented company.
