Dirty Hands Pottery Mary Firestone was born and raised in North Carolina, where at a young age, she discovered her medium while playing with the indigenous red clay in her own backyard. She set her art on the back burner, however, while she pursued a botany degree at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and found her soul mate, Steve, who brought her back to his native Indiana. Along with their son, Jack, and daughter, Rachel, they have created Eden, a 3.5 acre garden in northeast Tippecanoe County, in which they live and Mary works. |  |
