	RICHARD MILGRIM Represented by Pucker Gallery since 2004 BORN: 1955 in White Plains, New York RESIDES: Concord, Massachusetts

	Richard Milgrim is the first Western potter whose tea ceramics have been endorsed by the Grand Tea Master of the Urasenke Tea School. A native of New York, Milgrim first visited Japan in 1977 as a college student and traveled throughout the country, researching ceramics and Japanese arts and studying the language. After receiving a degree in Fine Arts and Japanese Studies from Antioch College, Milgrim began a dedicated study of both Japanese pottery and the Japanese tea ceremony as an apprenticeship with Iwabuchi Shiegya, Master Potter in Kyoto. His first one-man show was held in Kyoto in 1981 and in 1984 Milgrim acquired a traditional farmhouse in the village of Yotsuya and built his own kiln. Milgrim has exhibited extensively throughout Japan and worldwide and was selected to participate in the Japan National Ceramic Art Exhibition.
