Jack Roberts

Although Roberts was fascinated with glass at a very young age, he did not start working with glass until 2001. Largely self taught, Jack Roberts worked on small sculptures and pendants until he tried to obtain an apprenticeship at the Frabel Studio in 2007. Since many glass artists were competing for this one apprenticeship position with the Frabel Studio, his chances of obtaining the position were only about 5%. However, he impressed Hans Godo Frabel with his abilities and attitude and became a Frabel apprentice. After he successfully completed his apprenticeship program, he was hired as a junior glass artist with the Frabel Studio. Currently, Roberts lives with his 8-year old daughter Ariel in Acworth, Georgia.
