Note:
Moray writes, in the early 1920s, “In her search for ways to eke out a living, Carr turned to craft production, taking up rug making and pottery as media through which her interest in Native imagery could find a market...Carr signed her pottery pieces ‘Klee Wyck’”, her Indian name meaning “Laughing One”.
