About	Marcia was an accomplished artist whose miniature character dolls are in galleries and art museums all throughout the world. At the height of her career, she was commissioned by the Clinton Administration to sculpt the original justices of the Supreme Court in miniature. They are displayed in the supreme court building in Washington DC. Unfortunately the clay she used in her work was carcinogenic. Marcia was not only a great talent, but a daughter, wife, sister, mother and friend to everyone she met. She is greatly missed.
