Sonja Bryer has loved dolls all of her life. Her home and studio are an impressive "museum" of the many dolls she's sculpted and collected through the years.
1980 was a benchmark year for Sonja as she began selling her dolls commercially; became a member of ODACA and UFDC doll associations; and won several (of what would become many) awards for her first portrait doll.
Since that time, she has received many other honors, including having her sculpt, "Norma Jean" featured on the cover of "Contemporary Doll" magazine. Sonja's sculpts have a uniquely feminine distinction to them. She is truly a master portrait sculptor.
