Canadian artist, designer, author, and filmmaker James Houston worked for Steuben from 1962 until his death in 2005 and was the first designer to be honored by Steuben with a major retrospective exhibition in 1992. Houston's designs were heavily influenced by the fourteen years he spent in the Eastern Arctic, where he lived and worked alongside the Inuit people.
