The first book ever published on this renowned artist, "Helen Kish: The Artist and Her Dolls" documents in full-colour the extensive variety of her creations, from her earliest porcelains in the late 1970s to today's popular vinyl Riley and friends, including designs for manufacturers such as R. Dakin, The Franklin Mint and Pleasant Company. Well-known contemporary-doll expert and author Louise Fecher has also written a biography of the charismatic artist, based on extensive interviews with Ms Kish, her family, friends and colleagues, which is accompanied by never-before-seen personal photographs and examples of early artwork. An artist whose inner creative force led her to the doll-maker's life, Helen Kish has already left an unmistakable mark on the doll world -- and there is still much more to come.
