Guild member since 1997
While studying philosophy at the University of Mississippi, Yerger developed an interest in pottery which led him to a scholarship at prestigious Penland and apprenticeships with several master potters. He continued his exploration of pottery by working with a crafts cooperative in Papua, New Guinea, while serving with the U.S. Peace Corps. For his unique and beautiful pottery pieces, he formulates and mixes his own crystalline glazes, and all his food ware is microwave and dishwasher safe. Yerger has taught workshops throughout the South and at John C. Campbell Folk School.
