Jerome and Evelyn Ackerman
Jerome Ackerman (born 1920) and Evelyn Ackerman (née Lipton) (1924-2012) are American industrial designers who as a team made contributions to the aesthetic of California mid-century modern with their ceramics, wood carvings, mosaics, textiles, and enamels in home furnishings and architectural elements. The Ackermans sold their products through their companies Jenev and ERA Industries. Evelyn was an accomplished artist and an author of books on antique toys and dolls.
==Jerome Ackerman==
Jerome Ackerman was born on January 29, 1920 in Detroit to Louis Ackerman and Esther Greenberg. Jerry graduated from Detroit’s Central High School in 1939 and enrolled at Wayne University (now Wayne State University) as an art major. In 1941, when the United States entered World War II, he left school to work in a naval ordnance plant and then joined the Air Force, serving as a control tower operator in Germany. In 1949, Jerry decided to complete his college education and returned to Wayne University under the GI bill.
Among the many art classes he took at Wayne was ceramics taught by John Foster, who emphasized Chinese pottery and the work of Hamada and Bernard Leach. During Jerry’s senior year, Charles Harder, chairman of the New York State College of Ceramics at Alfred University, was the invited guest juror of the senior art exhibition at Wayne. Impressed by Jerry’s work, he offered him a place in the Alfred graduate program. Jerry received his MFA degree in ceramics in June 1952.
As he reduced his time with ERA Industries, Jerry resumed his ceramic pursuits. While still a traditional studio potter, he introduced more whimsical, decorative elements into his hand-thrown pots. His studio pottery, comprising both functional pieces and sculptural forms, has appeared in gallery and museum exhibitions.
