In The Doll World™, doll podcast and YouTube channel

www.inthedollworld.com/creators    Patricia Coleman-Cobb, Mixed Media Artist, joins In The Doll World, doll podcast,  for this wonderful kick your shoes off,  just relax and listen-in  conversation as she shares how she has gone from soft sculptured dolls, to clay sculpted figures and busts, to her newest addition of beautifully framed mixed media sculpted pieces.   Her journey has been amazing and sometimes unexpected, especially when you find out where her inspiration came from in creating her first doll. You won't believe it!

The conversation also lead us to talking about a piece that she created and although all three of us were brought up in different cities, we could identify with this piece so strongly that it truly sparked a connection and appreciation of this woman who forced all of us to remember from where we all came.  So powerful!

She also talks how COVID has impacted her work and the art she creates.

https://www.inthedollworld.com/customizers.html  Join In The Doll World, doll podcast and YouTube channel, for a truly delightful interview with Lisa Jameson, aka Pepstar as she shares how being an avid doll collector, starting with Barbies,  then evolving to the Tonner Fashion Dolls in the late 90's, began her doll repaint obsession. She soon discovered the ball joint dolls (bjd) and how finding them she decided to switch over to them as they were resin and she enjoyed working with that medium over vinyl and how all the dolls that she loves have all become wonderful canvases for her repainting and customizing skills for over 15 years. We also learn the story of how one of her dolls was featured in a music video. How cool is that?

Her skills are now applied to more bjd face-ups that have created some exquisite and very realistic-looking dolls, so much so that you forget you are looking at a doll.

www.inthedollworld.com/creators   In The Doll World, doll podcast and doll YouTube channel, shares an inspirational and passionate interview with Amy Jandrisevits, doll creator and founder of A Doll Like Me.  Join us as we talk about the amazing cloth dolls that Amy creates for children with limb differences, birthmarks, facial anomalies, and albinism and so many more and how truly important it is for these children to be represented in a doll ...."because everyone deserves to look into the sweet face of a doll and see their own".

Amy talks about her journey from a child who helped he mother find dolls for underrepresented children, to becoming a social worker who worked with children with cancer.  She was also a passionate doll collector and had created a few bald dolls for chemotherapy patients. She noticed how those dolls could help a child get through tough times and find a way to connect and nurture themselves when the dolls looked like the children.

Amy shares many stories about how her dolls came to be, one touching story was the true catalyst to creating A Doll Like Me, when a  friend of a friend saw a doll that looked like her daughter, but the friend's daughter's leg had just been amputated and she asked Amy if she could make a doll that looked like her daughter with the amputated leg. That led to the doll being posted on social media and within 2 months she had over 200 orders and the rest, as they say, is Doll Herstory.

Every doll makes a difference;  and, every doll is created and hand sewn with love. 

To find out how you can support and sponsor a doll for a child, please visit Amy and A Doll Like Me at her Facebook page at www.adolllikeme.com

https://www.inthedollworld.com/storytellers.html     In The Doll World, doll podcast and doll YouTube channel, shares a wonderful and candid interview with Pat Henry, the founder and publisher of Fashion Doll Quarterly (FDQ)  which was retired after seventeen years in 2020. When Pat retired FDQ, she endorsed In The Doll World!

Pat shares with us her amazing journey, from loving dolls as a child to creating a magazine that The Hollywood Reporter called FDQ “the Vogue of collector magazines”.  She has given rise to showcasing unknown doll artists to interviewing seasoned doll creators, to amazing photography and in-depth interviews.  She also talks about the business of dolls, why more women should be creating and manufacturing dolls, and things you should have in place before that begins.  She also shares one of the biggest highlights in her career in doing the magazine, probably not something you would expect, but has been one of the most-cherished moments in her life.

Can you guess who was the first person featured on the first issue of Fashion Doll Quarterly? Listen in to see if you were right!

In our interview, Dr. Beed shares an amazing story of how her journey to becoming a published author took her on a detour into creating a line of play dolls that showcase--not only how precious young girls are with her V.P. (Very Precious) doll line--but also how empowered they are.  From their courage to their beauty, to their talent and creativity, as well as embracing their differences which are showcased through dolls that are in a wheelchair to the hearing impaired.  With funky and trendy styles, to customized Kente cloth outfits, which are a part of her collectible line, Dolls for Our Daughters, has a unique way of encouraging  young girls to open up conversations that empower their ideas and voices and to remind them of their courage, beauty, talent, creativity, and differences are all beautiful gifts that are a part of who they are and should be shared, valued, and empowered.

Dr. Beed also shares a poignant story, she had no intention to share on the show that will really blow you away!  After you hear this story, you will understand how it led to her current path and why her passion and purpose are so strong within these empowered doll lines.

www.inthedollworld.com/podcasts   In The Doll World, doll podcast and doll YouTube channel,  share an amazing HerStory with Rev. Dr. LaVerne Hall, Doll Artist and Collector of Contemporary African-American Doll Artist as she shares with us how her daughter inspired her to create the My Little Mahji  paper doll that has taken her life in many directions, from paper doll to getting a doll pattern into McCALL's  pattern book to being featured on HGTV to a featured museum exhibit and so much more. You truly have to listen to this interview. The history of herstory is beautiful, albeit challenging due to the racial tension that existed and still continues to prevail in our society today, but also empowering on how many things she was able to accomplish within the doll community and how her love, passion and dedication to help support and collect dolls of African-American contemporary artists continues today.

www.inthedollworld.com    In The Doll World shares a wonderful, candid interview with Ernesto Padró-Campos, a humble, honest soul. Though Ernesto is known for his stunning photography, he refers to himself as an “illustrator” because he isn't a "trained photographer".

Join us as Ernesto also discusses his unusual journey into photography and how the collaborations in his life with amazing and talented creatives  throughout the doll community that he has worked with, from well known to new and upcoming creatives helped him to expand his own creativity and skills to bring amazing dolls to life, via Dolldom.

In our opinion, Ernesto is one of the most blessed people in the doll world because he sees and interacts with many of our favorite dolls—even before they are released to the public! Ernesto shapes how we see the dolls by shooting them in stylized vignettes that give them personalities.
