Joan McLean
Owner, Stained Glass Garden |
After earning a degree in painting from UC Berkeley and teaching
elementary school for 12 years in Oakland, California, Joan McLean
joined forces with her brother Bruce McLean and three other partners
to open the Stained Glass Garden in 1976.
The Stained Glass Garden was the first store to open on Fourth Street,
which at the time consisted of dirt roads, a goat farm, empty lots, and
the Amtrak railroad tracks just 30 yards away. In 1986, Joan bought out
her partners and within the first year of sole ownership expanded the store
threefold. In 1992, SGG relocated down the street to its current location
at 1800 Fourth Street, Berkeley, California. |
