Lassiter, Clyde

Clyde became “completely fascinated with the potter's wheel in 1972 and that fascination continues to this day”. He has spent many years making pots in his own studio while working a career in public service and raising a family. Clyde has taught at Sawtooth since 1992 and hopes to guide students to “find a technique that works for them, not just the way I do things.”
