Sarah Garcia was born of a Laguna Pueblo mother (Maria Trujillo) but has spent her adult life as an Acoma potter, probably one of the most prolific potters at the pueblo. She, along with Jessie Garcia, Lucy Lewis, and Marie Z. Chino, was largely responsible for the revival of Anasazi and Tularosa designs on contemporary Acoma wares. Sarah is now 67 or 68 years old and is not potting anymore due to failing eyesight.
