About this event

Michael Leach (1913-85) was Bernard Leach’s second son and the younger brother of David.

Michael engaged with the Leach Pottery from as early as 1922, spending afternoons under the tutelage of Shoji Hamada. After reading Natural Sciences in Cambridge in the early 1930s, Michael returned to the Leach Pottery in the late 1930s. Interrupted by the War, he joined the Pioneer Corps and was stationed in East Africa where he helped established two potteries making wares for the troops.
