Hayne Bayless

Hayne Bayless makes hand-built stoneware pottery in Ivoryton, CT. Hayne's interest in clay started in high school, where he discovered an old potter's wheel and kiln gathering dust in a corner of the art room. The art teacher pointed him to Bernard Leach's A Potter's Book, which became his guide. After a college career that spanned four schools and seven attempted majors over 12 years, Hayne emerged with a degree in journalism. He worked as a newspaper reporter and editor in New Haven for 10 years. His interest in clay reemerged, and making pots began to take up most of his time outside the newsroom. Hayne has had the great fortune to be awarded the top prizes at two of the country's most important craft shows: the Smithsonian Craft Show in Washington, D.C. and the Philadelphia Museum of Art Craft Show. He teaches workshops all over the country and abroad.
