Clarence Mather contributed to the world of art for over sixty years. An artist both by profession and avocation, he worked as an art director in textile design and produced many successful works in his experimentation with different media. Mather was one of the original members of Studio Montclair Inc. and contributed to its success by his willingness and enthusiasm to promote the arts through it.
