Abstract

Mary Black was an internationally-known weaver and a key figure in Nova Scotia's craft renaissance during the 1940s and 1950s. The early years of her worklife, however, remain unexplored, despite her place as a pioneering occupational therapist in Nova Scotia and in the United States during the 1920s and 1930s.
