Max Early was born into the Turkey Clan of his mother and Bear Clan of his father at Laguna Pueblo.  He grew up with his grandparents.  During his early teenage years, he painted some of his grandmother’s pottery.  He refined his technique to a personal touch, while maintaining traditional Laguna design symbols and compositions. 

Since 1994, Early has continued to be honored as a top prize-winning artist at Santa Fe Indian Market.  At the same time, he has pursued his higher education degree at the University of New Mexico, leaving little time for making pottery.
