She and the women she hired to work with her were more than artists. They were scientists and entrepreneurs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Head of the UND ceramics department from 1910 to 1949, Cable designed and made beautiful vases, pots and other ceramics. She taught thousands of students and gave lectures and demonstrations across the nation. Her works, all marked with the distinctive cobalt blue School of Mines logo, are treasured \u2013 and valuable \u2013 masterpieces.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe pieces created during the Cable era have become very collectible,\u201d Heitkamp said. \u201cThey\u2019ve been featured on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbs.org\/video\/antiques-roadshow-web-appraisal-und-vase-margaret-cable-ca-1926\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Antiques\u00a0Roadshow<\/a> numerous times, and there are entire clubs devoted to North Dakota pottery and its history, with UND Pottery from the Cable era being the most coveted.\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/commons.und.edu\/pottery\/index.2.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">A slideshow of UND Pottery is available on UND\u2019s Scholarly Commons.<\/a><\/p>\n<h2><strong>An artistic explosion<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Cable was recruited by Earle Babcock, a UND chemistry instructor and state geologist who would later become dean of engineering &amp; mines and acting president of UND.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_24589\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-24589\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/commons.und.edu\/pottery\/2435\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-24589 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.und.edu\/und-today\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2022\/03\/bison-vase-web.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"355\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.und.edu\/und-today\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2022\/03\/bison-vase-web.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.und.edu\/und-today\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2022\/03\/bison-vase-web-254x300.jpg 254w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-24589\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">&#8220;Bison Vase&#8221; (1933).

Babcock envisioned making sewer pipe, paving brick, roofing tile, and ornamental brickwork from North Dakota clay, which is of an especially high grade.<\/p>\n<p>Born in Crookston, Minn., Cable trained at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.minnpost.com\/mnopedia\/2013\/04\/handicraft-guild-established-minneapolis-national-center-arts-and-crafts-movement\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Handicraft Guild in Minneapolis<\/a>, which was founded by women and at the time was a national center for the Arts &amp; Crafts Movement.<\/p>\n<p>And though she began making \u201cuseful\u201d items from clay, she soon designed and crafted decorative pieces that incorporated North Dakota\u2019s prairie and agricultural roots \u2013 the prairie rose, coneflowers, wheat, birds and flickertails, American Indian and western motifs \u2013 all in the Arts &amp; Crafts and Art Noveau movements.<\/p>\n<p>Within just a few years, UND pottery was shown across the country. She exhibited at the Panama-Pacific Exposition in 1915, and her work was shown at the Art Institute of Chicago and the Century of Progress Exposition in Chicago in 1933, gaining national attention.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMargaret Cable is so interesting because she was appointed to her position without a college degree,\u201d Heitkamp said. \u201cShe was so dedicated to her craft, and a natural leader who was able to quickly and successfully create and maintain a ceramics program for UND, even through the Great Depression.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2><strong>A gifted teacher<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>In addition to crafting pottery, Cable was an excellent teacher who drew students. By 1921 she was teaching 60 students and had a waiting list. In 1925, the list had grown to 70, even with three assistant teachers.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_24590\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-24590\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/commons.und.edu\/pottery\/1772\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-24590 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.und.edu\/und-today\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2022\/03\/116-0718-viking-ship-pitcher-web.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"357\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.und.edu\/und-today\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2022\/03\/116-0718-viking-ship-pitcher-web.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.und.edu\/und-today\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2022\/03\/116-0718-viking-ship-pitcher-web-252x300.jpg 252w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-24590\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">&#8220;Viking ship pitcher, teal.&#8221; UND Pottery Collection.

She didn\u2019t have textbooks, so she wrote her own tutorials and shared them as far and wide as she could. She was also an incredible mentor who hired smart, hard-working women to help teach and run the program.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Lady of the Wheel,\u201d as she became known for her demonstrations at the potter\u2019s wheel, spoke at women\u2019s groups and clubs across the state and nation, and was asked to make presentation bowls and pieces for dignitaries, including President John F. Kennedy, Crown Princess Martha of Norway and Queen Marie of Romania. Governor A.G. Sorlie commissioned her to design and make what became the North Dakota Products Vase, which remains one of her greatest achievements.<\/p>\n<p>Cable was remarkably adept at politics in a man\u2019s world, and often gave gifts of pottery to the wives of public officials who could aid the UND ceramics program.<\/p>\n<p>She was one of very few women at the time to be accepted into the American Ceramics Society, and she presented a paper at their annual meeting in 1922, which was later published in their Journal, highly unusual for a woman at that time.<\/p>\n<p>She was named North Dakota Outstanding Woman of the Year in 1927, and was invited to the Women\u2019s World Fair in Chicago, where for 10 days she threw pottery, exhibited, gave lectures, and was featured in multiple publications.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Innovator and entrepreneur<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Throughout her 39 years at UND, Cable worked tirelessly, often under very difficult conditions. Despite budget issues, prevailing attitudes about women, and poor facilities, Cable drew students and accolades.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_24591\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-24591\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><a href=\"https:\/\/commons.und.edu\/pottery\/632\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-24591 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.und.edu\/und-today\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2022\/03\/053-0223-blue-goat-plate-web.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"289\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-24591\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">&#8220;Blue goat plate&#8221; (1932).

Her production levels were prolific. With the help of students and her staff, she was able to put thousands of pieces of pottery into the hands of the public.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Today, UND is home to approximately 2,000 Cable era works, with public displays in the Gorecki Alumni Center and Hughes Fine Arts Center.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMargaret Cable was truly the best of UND,\u201d Heitkamp said. \u201cAnyone who owns a piece of her pottery is holding a piece of UND and a piece of women\u2019s history.
