Harry Jenkins did woodwork and carving for "15 years or more." He served in the Army during World War II and did not think he would return to doing woodwork. Questionnaires like this one were the raw data for the exploratory study of the Craft Education Project, a joint undertaking by the Southern Highland Handicraft Guild and the Southern Highlanders. Marian Heard was hired to oversee the planning phase that involved visiting artists and determining the needs of the craftworkers.
