ferson Street enrolled in Applied
Arts at Phoenix College. He was
fascinated by the ease with which

filled with beautiful articles in
copper. His wife, Doretha, a
teacher at the Julian School has
a difficult time keeping their
.small son Eugene, Jr., from
trying his hand at tooling. Eight
een parakeets in the corner and a
minature Pekingnese keep Cook
household lively.
All of Mr. Cook’s portraits
and scenes in copper are made
entirely by hand. His subjects
have been religious scenes,
deserts, animals, African and
Indian heads, ships and many
other types..
His works have been displayed
at the Eastlake Park and he hopes
to enter several at the Arizona
State Fair in November.
