Born in France, she was of English, German, and Jewish heritage and lived in both England and Germany as a child. During her lifetime, she survived the hardships of World War I, studied with the famed Bauhaus school in Germany, and immigrated to the United States in 1940 to escape persecution as World War II gripped Europe. Architect Gordon Herr and his heiress wife Jane Herr purchased farmland in Guerneville, California, to establish Pond Farm, a Bauhaus-inspired school and refuge for artists of various disciplines. In 1942, Wildenhain was the first of several artists to move there. Pond Farm Workshops opened in 1949, but differences in opinions led to the artists' colony's demise after only a few years. Only Wildenhain remained at Pond Farm, where she ran a successful pottery studio and school until her retirement in 1980. For thirty years, Wildenhain taught more than twenty students each summer to master the art of wheel-thrown pottery. As a teacher and artist, Wildenhain had a tremendous influence on American mid-century studio ceramics. Her Bauhaus training allowed her to introduce innovative methods and ideas to the field of American ceramics. She wrote three influential books: Pottery: Form and Expression (1959), The Invisible Core: A Potter's Life and Thoughts (1973), and . . . that We Look and See: An Admirer Looks at the Indians (1979). Since her death in 1985, the grounds and buildings at Pond Farm have been preserved, and are now officially a part of the California State Parks system."},{"label":"Search SCL Digital Archives for this Author","value":["Wildenhain, Marguerite, 1896-1985"]},{"label":"Search Author or Book in Library Catalog","value":"Search for works by Marguerite Wildenhain in the <a href=\"https://find.sonomalibrary.org/client/en_US/default/search/results?qu=%22Wildenhain%2C+Marguerite%22&te=&rt=false%7C%7C%7CAuthor\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">library catalog</a>"},{"label":"Search Author in Open Library","value":"Search for works by Marguerite Wildenhain in <a href=\"https://openlibrary.org/search/authors?q=Wildenhain+Marguerite\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Open Library</a>"},{"label":"Author's Place(s) of Residence","value":["Guerneville"]},{"label":"Sort Title","value":"Marguerite Wildenhain (1896-1985)"},{"label":"Significant Title","value":"Pottery : Form and Expression"},{"label":"Digital Archives Identifier","value":"marguerite_wildenhain"},{"label":"Digital Archives Collection Name(s)","value":["Sonoma County Local Authors"]},{"label":"Date Added","value":"2018/01/24"},{"label":"Filename","value":"marguerite_wildenhain.jpg"},{"label":"Title","value":"Marguerite Wildenhain (1896-1985)"},{"label":"Item Type","value":["Text"]},{"label":"Item Format or Genre","value":["Biography files","Bibliographies","Portraits","Photographs"]},{"label":"Search SC Local Arts for this Author or Artist","value":"<a href=\"https://digital.sonomalibrary.org/documents?filter_363=marguerite_wildenhain&applyState=true\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Marguerite Wildenhain (1896-1985)</a>"},{"label":"Collection(s)","value":["Sonoma County Local Authors"]},{"label":"Author Name (Controlled)","value":["Marguerite Wildenhain (1896-1985)"]}],"description":"Marguerite Wildenhain (1896-1985)","sequences":[{"@type":"sc:Sequence","canvases":[{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/f02300e2-57bc-4792-9d56-842652bd86c0/canvas/_1","@type":"sc:Canvas","label":"Marguerite Wildenhain (1896-1985)","height":450,"width":450,"images":[{"@type":"oa:Annotation","motivation":"sc:painting","resource":{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/f02300e2-57bc-4792-9d56-842652bd86c0/full/full/0/default.jpg","@type":"dctypes:Image","format":"image/jpeg","service":{"@context":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/context.json","@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/f02300e2-57bc-4792-9d56-842652bd86c0","profile":"http://iiif.io/api/image/2/level2.json","tiles":[{"width":512,"scaleFactors":[1]}]},"height":450,"width":450},"on":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/f02300e2-57bc-4792-9d56-842652bd86c0/canvas/_1","metadata":[]}],"thumbnail":{"@id":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/f02300e2-57bc-4792-9d56-842652bd86c0/full/500,500/0/default.jpg","@type":"dctypes:Image","height":500,"width":500}}]}],"thumbnail":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/f02300e2-57bc-4792-9d56-842652bd86c0/full/500,500/0/default.jpg","logo":"https://iiif.quartexcollections.com/sonomalibrary/iiif/logo"}
