Nancy Lovett

Nancy Lovett has worked in clay for more than 25 years. She studied with Richard Peeler at DePauw University and credits his teaching for inspiring her passion of “creating in the mud.” After graduation, Lovett continued her studies at IUPUI while teaching in the public school system. In 1978 she accepted a position as Resident Artist/Potter with Carson Newman College in Jefferson City, Tennessee, running their ceramics program and making pots for a living. After fulfilling a wide variety of careers with potting on the side, Lovett returned to DePauw University where she is currently Major Gifts Officer. She is still potting today and enjoys giving her work to donating alumni. Her work may be found on display with the Greencastle Galleria.
