Senior Editor, Ceramic Arts Network Online, Books, & Videos
Jennifer Harnetty discovered ceramics the quarter before she graduated from Ohio University with an English degree in 1996 and has been making pots ever since. In 2004, she became assistant editor, and later associate editor, of Ceramics Monthly and
Pottery Making Illustrated (positions that nicely combined her interest in ceramics and her English degree, wouldn’t you say?). In 2008, she became editor of Ceramic Arts Daily (now Ceramic Arts Network), and more recently, Senior Editor,
Ceramic Arts Network Online, Books, and Videos. In this capacity, she oversees the production of an expanding collection of instructional videos for ceramic artists, as well as two online webinar series (Workshop from Home and Talking Clay Field Trips). She also manages the Ceramic Arts Network Books program.
Outside the office, Jen is kept busy in her gig as mom to a teenage boy, who is now several inches taller than her. Other interests include family, friends, music, flower gardening, dogs, horses, being crafty, books, movies, endless home improvement
projects. Lately, she has been working primarily in a mid-range red clay in her precious 2–3 hours in the studio per week. She has also been delving into handbuilding, after being primarily a wheel thrower for many years.
Holly Goring
Managing Editor, Pottery Making Illustrated and Ceramics Monthly; Manager, International Ceramic Artists Network (ICAN)
Holly began her career in ceramics from the outside looking in. With her face pressed against the glass, staring in at the potters, she worked for the Frederick R. Weisman Art Museum developing the U of Minnesota’s Public Art minor program and
earning an art history degree from the University of Minnesota-Twin Cities. Tiring of a sore neck and the heavy weight of jealousy, she stopped resisting the messy art kids and whole-heartedly joined them. A BFA in ceramics followed shortly after.
Years later while studying ceramics in The Ohio State University’s grad program, she took an internship at Ceramics Monthly and has been on staff ever since. Holly currently works as editor for Pottery Making Illustrated and associate editor
for Ceramics Monthly and now spends a lot of time inside the office looking out.
Like everyone else on staff, Holly has burrowed out a small space for a studio in her basement — that sweet spot between the furnace and the washing machine that is all her own. Lacking the will (and the space) to continue making large, heavy
installations, she is working on a new body of functional pieces. Now her compulsive gathering, stacking, storing, saving, containing, tending, grouping, comparing, and sorting nature is finally content in building empty pots for others to fill.
Katie Reaver
Editor,Ceramics Monthly; Associate Editor, Pottery Making Illustrated; and Associate Editor, Books
Katie Reaver studied ceramics at the University of Mary Washington, in Fredericksburg, Virginia, where she graduated with a BA in studio art. Two years in the post-baccalaureate program at the University of Arkansas focused her studio practice and
gave her the opportunity to work as a studio technician and instructor at a local community arts center. After completing her MFA in ceramics at Ohio University, Katie joined the editorial staff.
Outside of the office, Katie spends time making work in her home studio. Generally, projects are kept contained to the spare bedroom, but occasionally, to the dismay of her husband and cat, they spill over into other spaces. She enjoys watching competitive
baking shows, exploring Columbus, and learning new crafts.
Ash Neukamm
Manager of Platform Marketing
Ash Neukamm found clay during her second semester of college at the University of Florida and quickly became obsessed! After graduating in 2010, she attended the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth's Post-Baccalaureate program. After a year of hard
work she was accepted into the Ohio State University's Master of Fine Arts program and graduated in 2014.
She's currently spent the last decade studying, making pots, teaching, and living in Columbus, Ohio. Ash is happy to have a large basement studio where she can throw and make a mess. Outside of the office and studio, she enjoys reading, cooking, hiking,
entertaining her pups, and hanging with her husband and son.
