VITA Richard Uhlemeyer: Richard Uhlemeyer visited the Kunstgewerbeschule- und Handwerkerschule Hannover in the 1920s and studied u. a. at Ludwig Vierthaler Sculpture. After completing his studies, he worked as a freelance artist. In 1930 he founded a wholesale trade in handicraft products and five years later he founded a pottery shop, which gained notoriety under the name Kunsthandwerk Richard Uhlemeyer. Through his entrepreneurial and organizational skills, he managed to occupy an important position within Hanoverian and German trade policy. In 1945 he was elected President of the Chamber of Crafts Hannover and four years later became the first president of the ZDH. During his tenure, he campaigned for the needs of the middle-class economy and spoke out against a further preference of the industry over the Craft. Shortly after his re-election as president Uhlemeyer died in 1954 as a result of a heartbeat.
