Harvey K. Littleton, glass artist.
Brief overview of the work and background of Littleton. The artist narrates, discussing his creation of multiple overlays of concentric parabolas which are then stretched and shaped. There are also scenes of the glass being blown and worked in his studios. This may have been an interview for a television program, judging from the format and subtitle.
