Peterson's Wheels, Kilns & Clay, 1967-1968

"Wheels, Kilns & Clay" was produced for CBS-KNXT Studios, Los Angeles, California, USA, and originally broadcast three times per week in 1967 and 1968. 54 programs were produced. The producer, Susan Peterson, who was head of the Ceramics Department at the University of Southern California from 1955 to 1972, purchased the 2-inch video tapes outright from CBS for $5,400 rather than have the studio erase and reuse them after the series completed production. Peterson later had the tapes converted to VHS and archived at the Ceramic Research Center, Arizona State University Art Museum. The series was copyrighted in 1997 and made available for purchase on DVDs.
