Sculptor, playwright, lyricist, actor and director, born in Baltimore, Maryland, America. Holofcener modelled in clay and cast in bronze, and claimed Michelangelo, Rodin and Epstein as influences. He studied for a year at the Maryland Institute and at the New School in New York “at a class given by Chaim Gross. I lasted an hour.” Holofcener took part in group exhibitions in Bucks County, Pennsylvania; Princeton, New Jersey; and in London. Had a first solo show at Gibbes Museum, Charleston, South Carolina, 1977, and latterly at Bruton Street Gallery, 1996, and The Catto Gallery, 2002. Catto commissioned Holofcener to produce a limited-edition maquette of his life-size sculpture Allies (Churchill and Roosevelt), unveiled in Bond Street in 1995.
