Bio
Sarah Klein is an American artist who has exhibited her artwork widely both across the country and around the globe in galleries, museums, on television and in film festivals.
In 1999, she earned her MFA from Mills College and since then has incorporated her creative work with her culinary interests by teaching workshops, cooking camps and classes at numerous San Francisco Bay Area venues.
One of Sarah's favourite artistic themes is the process of making naturally leavened bread, and she recently collaborated with the musical group Orange Sherbet to create a children's music video entitled Feed the Starter.
In 2001, she was the recipient of a Chez Panisse Foundation Grant to teach bread making to inner-city youth.
Many of Sarah's hand-drawn animations, books and videos depict themes related to the home and culinary traditions. A project she collaborated on is the Local Foods Wheel, which is a fun and functional tool to help people discover what is in season at different times of the year in the San Francisco Bay Area.
Sarah was raised in San Francisco and now lives in Oakland with her loving husband and a cat named Alistair.
