Gustav Stickley (1858-1942) is an iconic character and one of the most influential figures of the American Arts & Crafts movement. A self-made man whose furniture company, Craftsman Workshops, and the seminal magazine he founded in 1901, The Craftsman, held wide-ranging influence over American interior design and decorative arts for decades.
David Cathers is a researcher, lecturer, and writer on the Arts & Crafts movement and a frequently consulted expert and lecturer on Gustav Stickley. He is the author of Furniture of the American Arts and Crafts Movement and Stickley Style, and editor of Gustav Stickley's Craftsman Farms: A Pictorial History.
Cathers is one of a select group of international Arts & Crafts specialists who contributed to the catalogue of the Victoria & Albert Museum exhibition 'International Arts & Crafts' (2005). He began collecting Stickley furniture in 1973, and since 1993 has been a trustee of the Craftsman Farms Foundation, based in New Jersey.
