Maxx Laate
INTRODUCTION
Maxx Laate comes from a family of famous Zunis. Less well known is that many of the other top carvers are his brothers and nephews because they go by other surnames. They have mostly lived near each other and Maxx’s brother Pernell has been an inspiration and teacher for many of them, though Zunis don’t teach in the way schools do. So, the family has been influential to other carvers.
