Meet Mr. Teeny of Hooper's Creek

Patricia Bradley studied at The School of the Art Institute of Chicago, has a BFA from Rhode Island School of Design, and attended The New York Film Academy. As a product design director, she learned the craft of positioning, telling product stories while directing commercials and photo shoots for many of the products she conceptualized. As a child, she requested a tape recorder and binoculars for her 8th birthday in order to observe birds, record their songs, and keep sketches in her sketchbook. It was at this age Patricia became fascinated by the tiny tattered photographs of her ancestors secured by their corner tabs in both her Grandmother’s scrapbooks. Patricia loved sitting next to her Grandmothers turning the pages of time together while listening to stories and of her family who were part of a faraway past. With a passion in documenting history, studying folklore, rituals, culture and nature, Patricia delights in preserving the past and creating new ways to tell and share stories. Born in Chattanooga, Tennessee, growing up partly in St. Pete Fl., going on to spend 10 years in New England and 20 years in New York, Patricia is finally home in North Carolina.
