Photo from Life Magazine, p.44 (January 29, 1940) shown in photo gallery for historical/human interest only and is not a part of this listed item. Helen Martin King (1895-1988) was a prominent mid-20th-century Arkansas rug-hooking artist and designer whose work gained national attention during the American craft revival era. A native of Powhatan, Arkansas, she studied at the Cincinnati Conservatory of Music, the Ohio Mechanical Institute, the Cincinnati Art Museum, and Sophie Newcomb College in New Orleans before returning to Batesville. By the 1940s she had earned recognition in Life magazine and National Geographic, and she went on to teach rug hooking and design patterns into the 1960s. Today her hooked rugs are considered rare and highly collectible within American folk art circles. (Biographical notes courtesy of Lyon College Special Collections, Regional Studies Center.).
