Abstract:

Tom Clark, a professor of religion at Davidson College, began carving gnome-like creatures as a hobby. The hobby has now grown into a thriving, multimillion dollar business. Clark's statues of gnomes and wood spirits have made him one of the best known sculptors in the country and one of the most prolific in the figurine industry.
