    "Blue Corn (Crucita Gonzales Calabaza) was born on December 7, 1921 in San Ildefonso, a Tewa Indian village located along the Rio Grande River, about 25 miles northwest of Santa Fe. After leaving the Santa Fe Indian School at the age of 12, Blue Corn began to become seriously interested in pottery-making, learning the craft from her grandmother. During World War II, she worked as a housekeeper for two years for J. Robert Oppenheimer, the overseer of the Manhattan Project at Los Alamos."
