Virgie Garcia (1947- )

Virgie Garcia of Acoma Pueblo is believed to be a contemporary active potter although I can find no definite evidence of that.  She is listed in Dillingham as an active potter in 1991 and Schaaf acknowledges her in his book in 2002.  She credits her grandmother, Lolita Garcia, with teaching her the techniques of pottery production.
