Louisiana Bendolph (born October 20, 1960) is an American visual artist and quilt maker.
[3] Her work in the exhibition "Gee's Bend: The Architecture of the Quilt" was on display at the Walters Art Museum in 2007.
Her print "American Housetop (for the Arnetts)" (2005), which is dedicated to the family who linked Gee's Bend with the museum world, was on display at Lehman College Art Gallery in 2015 along with 14 quilts and photographs.
The artist later would describe fond memories of watching her mother and other relatives sew, while the children would play under the quilts.
She worked at Lee, putting zippers and pockets into jeans, until the company moved that part of their operation abroad in 1997.
