| Transcript | Bill Horgos >s o — I "O >n O o o b. April 1, 1945, Hungary BFA: Academy of Art, San Francisco, in Illustration An appropriate entrant for the World Fantasy Convention, Bill Horgos was born in the Transyl- vanian Alps. He started carving at the early age of five when he was first given a knife by his father, who was a butcher. He has developed that early aptitude into a career of working in wood and ivory. His art has been carried at the last two Pacific States Craft Fairs, Meyer/Brier/Weiss, the Renaissance Pleasure Faire, the Bank of America World Headquarters, the Los Angeles County Museum, the Mill Valley Arts Fair, and the exhibit "Elements" in New York. Horgos lives in Larkspur, California and likes to do "whatever I damn please and have lots of fun in between." He is married to the goldsmith and enamelist Lilli Heart Horgos. He spends his spare time raising carp and pandering to a 1939 Chevrolet truck. His work has been featured in a number of publications, including Handmade Toys and Games by Jean Ray Laury & Ruth Law, The Scrimshander by William Gilker- son, and The Fine Woodworking Design Book Two. He has produced two record cover albums: Nilsson Schmilsson, and Seven Separate Fools—a Three Dog Night album. Bill Horgos • 259 Madrone • Larkspur CA 94939 23 |
