Michael Casson OBE (2 April 1925 - 12 December 2003) born in London, was an English studio potter, referred to as "respected and charismatic".[1]

He studied art and woodwork at Shoreditch College, and ceramics at Hornsey College of Art,[2] and was one of the founding potters of the Craft Potters Association, a co-operative that acquired a shop and gallery in central London in 1958.[3]

In 1976, Casson devised and presented "The Craft of the Potter" for the BBC a series that involved practical demonstrations and discussion about the craft of the potter.[4]
