Neil Randall David, Sr., Hopi/Tewa American Indian, artist and Kachina doll carver, was born June 4, 1944 on the Hopi Reservation in Polacca Arizona. His father died before David was six years old. He learned the basics of carving from his grandfather Victor (Kawayo) Charlie.〔Pecina, Ron and Pecina, Bob; Art by Neil David. ''Neil David’s Hopi World''. Schiffer Publishing Ltd., 2011. ISBN 978-0-7643-3808-3. Pp 94-97.〕 Under the influence and guidance of Victor Charlie, a Kachina doll carver, and his wife, a potter, Lena (Blue Corn) Charlie, David’s interest in art was stimulated at an early age. His grandparents were invited to exhibit their art at the Santa Fe Indian Village pavilion at the Railroad Fair in Chicago in 1948. The following year they brought their grandson, 5 ½ year old David, along with them.〔Bulow, Ernie. ''Master Artist Neil David Hopi-Tewa Living Treasure.'' Indian Trader, May 2012, Pp12-13.〕 David was self-taught as an artist. His art teacher in eight grade was Fred Kabotie. After graduation, David attended High school in distant Phoenix. He sold his first Kachina doll while a high school freshman to Byron Hunter, who managed the trading store in Polacca. He saw the young man’s talent in art and as his mentor encouraged him. Hunter bought many of David’s drawings, paintings, and Kachina carvings and sold them through McGee’s trading store.〔Teiwes, Helga. ''Kachina Dolls''. University of Arizona Press. 1991. Pp. 114-117.〕 David and his wife Dealva, have three sons and a daughter. David lives and continues to create his painting and carving on the Hopi Reservation in Polacca on First Mesa, Arizona.
