Ann Feeley and William Kieffer live in Wilmot, NH . They?re sculptors, and they were recently commissioned to do a bronze sculpture of the French explorer Antoine Cadillac, who founded the city now known as Detroit, in 1701. The figure will be installed in Detroit on July 24th as part of the city?s 300th anniversary celebration. They talked with John about collaborating to create the sculpture, and about how they used a family member as a model for Cadillac?s features.
