 From Askart: Clay artist Jim Webb began studying ceramics with Toshiko Takaezu while an undergraduate at Princeton University. After graduating with a degree in art history, he traveled extensively, primarily in the Middle East and Afghanistan, where he developed a keen interest in Islamic art and architecture.

Upon returning to the U.S. he studied economics at Columbia University, where he received a master's degree. It was while studying at Columbia that Jim rediscovered his love of ceramics. At Toshiko's urging he moved to Lambertville, New Jersey, and became a member of the now-defunct Clay Co-op. In 1978 he opened his own studio, which is today Studio 233.
