Abstract:

Brooks did not come from Seagrove, nor did she grow up in a pottery family. She did not begin working with clay until she was thirty-two. Now, twenty years later, she's known as the \"Rooster Queen\" for her creations of stoneware roosters and chickens. Her specialty is Polish chickens that have wild, sea-urchin crests.
