Robert Coleman (1943–2015) was an American glass artist who earned his MFA from Kent State, founded the glassblowing program at Columbus College of Art and Design, and established his studio in Mount Vernon, Ohio, in 1973. A prominent figure in the American studio glass movement, he gained national recognition for hand-blown creations featuring rich metallic finishes and iridescent lusters.
