Information
on the Artist
Leon
Applebaum was born in 1945 in the US. During his time at college he attended hot glass classes and was
instantly drawn into the world of art glass.
After achieving a BFA at Massachusetts College and an MA at Peabody College of Vanderbilt University Leon set about
exhibiting his work. In the early 70s he went to Sweden and enrolled in Orrefor’s
Glass School. A further year was spent at Boda Glass where he learnt Swedish hot glass techniques such as trapping air and
creating bubbles, working with colour spectrums and thick glass designs.
Moulding his ideas and skills attained in Sweden, Leon returned to the United States and
competed his MFA degree at Rochester Institute of Technology.
Leon has educated students in Naples USA and has attended and conducted workshops throughout
the US. He currently resides and works from the Sahaj Glass Studio Prattsburg, N.Y.
