To the right are bios of various Hudins who live to create. These are only the ones living in California however. As time goes one, we will add others who live in the rest of the United States, Austria, Slovenia, Croatia, and France.
Cathryn Hudin
She fell in love with clay in 1969 and has been a "one-media woman" ever since. She finds time to teach ceramics at Butte Community College and also serves as the president of the Paradise Art Center.
Lee Hudin
He worked in art and design for decades, meeting Cathryn while in a college art class. For many years he blew and decorated glass in his own studio and for Orient and Flume. In 1985 he joined Cathryn to design and make pottery at their home studio. Until his passing in 2003, these two artists collaborated on many pieces while at the same time working on their own independent projects.
Chris Hudin
The youngest son of the California Hudins, he has shown a lot of promise in ceramics, following in his parents footsteps. His love for jobs with heat has led him to firefighting, but he knows his first love with always be clay.
Michael Hudin
You wouldn't want him to design your kiln. While it would probably light and wouldn't blow up, it wouldn't fire your work right. Simply put, Michael is the coder and designer behind the website. He has worked extensively in computers for the last decade or so and has gotten to be a self-ascribed genius when it comes to all things computer. But, when it comes to the decorative arts, he leaves that to Cathy and Chris. He has however pursued film and photography with great abandon.
