Author Biography:

Kevin Millward started his training at art school and then went on to work at a number of studios including Cooper's Pottery in Cheshire, the Gladstone Pottery Museum and working with David Leach. Later, he was approached by Harrison Mayer, now Potterycrafts, to be their craft advisor, helping potters, schools, colleges and small industry with making and technical problems as well as giving workshops and demonstrations all over the UK and Europe. He later left to set up his own studio in Leek, making stoneware and porcelain, and started teaching part time at his old college, which led to lecturing at some of the UK’s leading universities specialising in ceramics such as Bucks New University and the University of Westminster. He has more recently been series consultant to The Great Pottery Throw Down, a Channel 4 TV show.
