Born in Worcester, Massachusetts, Susan Wakeen was raised
by two creative parents who encouraged the pursuit of an art career.
Growing up in Avon Connecticut, a favorite part of her childhood was
drawing and painting.
Wakeen attended Central Connecticut State University, majoring in
math and psychology. For many years she taught Special Education in
Brookline and Waltham, Massachusetts. Always with sketchbook and
pencil close by, the reality of being a fine artist seemed far reached.
Her twin sister Sandra encouraged her to look for a means to start
studying art more seriously. She started with evening courses at the
Boston School of Fine Art; later studying with Joshua Graham and
Dorothy Lepler, who would become influential in teaching her
discipline, observation, and control. Wakeen continued her studies at
the Scottsdale Artist School with world renowned instructors including
Betty Patt Gatliff, noted artists Rosalind Cook, and Tuck Langland,
among others.
In 1982 Wakeen debuted her sculptures and dolls in New York City at the
International Toy Fair. She was instantly recognized for her outstanding
work and awarded "Doll of The Year" for her sculpture of 'Jeanne.' Wakeen
was offered a position at Hasbro Toys in Pawtucket Rhode Island as senior
designer and contributed greatly to the growth of the doll design department.
Wakeen soon began creating sculptures of babies which led to the founding of
the Susan Wakeen Doll Company Inc. For over 25 years she was recognized by
her peers and collectors as one of the top artists in her field; and was honored
with more than 48 nominations and awards in the industry including
"Doll of the Year" and "The Award of Excellence." During this period she would
travel to Italy, China, and Spain to perfect her artistry.
After twenty-eight years in the doll industry, and with encouragement from
her husband, family, and friends, Wakeen turned her attention completely to
the fine art of sculpture. For the past twelve years she has been pursuing a
career as a full-time sculptor. Her work has been Nationally and Internationally
awarded the highest of honors and recognition. Susan Wakeen’s sculptures are
now found in homes, and museum collections throughout the United States,
Canada, and Australia.
