Using materials from contemporary newspapers, magazines, and trade publications, the presentation will share views of the founding, growth, and products of the Steuben Glass Works and of the life and accomplishments of Frederick Carder during the years from 1903 to the mid-1930’s. These publications reflected the public interest in the introduction of a company in Corning that produced innovative, high quality art glass and in the person most responsible for the creative ideas behind the work. Frederick Carder also played a prominent role in the civic life of Corning for many decades.
