About Lisa Medoff
When I was 5 years old, I went fishing with my dad and brother. As awful as it sounds, my dad accidentally hooked me while casting his line.
I was looking at the lake when I suddenly felt a tug on my head, but don't really remember being in pain. What I do remember is sitting in the car on the way to the hospital admiring myself in the rearview mirror. I had a lovely feathered lure hanging down the side of my head and thought I looked like a mythical princess. I do believe my love of adornment started then and there.

I was born and bred in Brooklyn NY, where I received a BA in Cultural Anthropology. I have studied under several master jewelers over the years and been exhibiting for over 25 years. My work is influenced by my travels around the globe and inspired by nature and organic forms.
I like to think of my pieces as wearable sculptures. I am extremely grateful to be able to create and have my work appreciated by others..
