Abstract
Utah has a deep history of crafting and DIY spirit. This episode digs into that spirit as we highlight three women who brought it to life:
- Violet Bear Allen, an elder in the Skull Valley Band of Goshute who was known for her gift in beadwork
- Ann Cannon Woodbury, an early settler in St. George who was a leader in the lesser-known pioneer handicraft of silk production
- Angela Brown, a photographer, editor of SLUG magazine and founder of Craft Lake City
Each of these women represent a part of the state’s tradition of industry and thrift, and all of them had a role in preserving artisan crafts as a cornerstone of Utah culture.
