Daniel B. Kennedy, Jr. (1944-2004)

Daniel Kennedy started to develop an avid interest in Native American Indian culture at the age of 6, when he began collecting artifacts in Washington, D.C. and surrounding areas. The collection began as an assortment of arrowheads and pottery shards found along the banks of the Potomac River, but quickly grew more sophisticated. Over the years, his collection evolved as he traveled across the country, gathering artifacts from Sioux, Navaho, Cherokee, and Hopi tribes, among others, as well as Eskimo carvings from Alaska, and native folk art from Mexico. He was well-read in Native American customs and shared his knowledge and interest with colleagues, family, and friends.

In this collection you will find beautiful baskets, masks from all over the world, pottery of all shapes and sizes, hand-woven rugs, and colorful kachina dolls.

All prices are negotiable.

The collection is now held in Arlington, VA by Daniel's sister, Ann Kennedy and the site is created and maintained by his niece, Kate Spanos.
