A Conversation with Dave Conley

Conference attendees enjoyed the annual "Conversation with Dave Conley" at the conclusion of this afternoon's seminars.  Dave shared information about the Fiesta utensils and the Macy's and Dillard's exclusive bowls (i.e., the individual pasta bowl and rice bowl, respectively).  In the photo to the left, Dave shows off the new Frederick Hurten Rhead postage stamp issued by the US Postal Service.

DISHES: A Documentary About Collecting Fiesta

This afternoon's seminars started off with a screening of Amy Levine Stermer's DISHES, which was filmed (in part) at HLCCA's 5th annual conference in Pittsburgh, PA in 2003. This was the first time that we screened DISHES at an HLCCA conference since 2005, and it received a very warm reception.  For more information about the film, click here.
