Larry Kent McManis
9.17.1952 - 7.13.2019
It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our dear friend, mentor, and coworker Kent McManis. Kent contracted poliomyelitis as a child, and died of cancer—a complication of his lifelong battle with the effects of polio. Kent would advise: have your children vaccinated!
Kent’s life was full and spirited to the very end. He was born in Albuquerque, NM, educated in California, and lived much of his adult life in Arizona where he had a successful Native American art business. Kent was passionate about many things: his friends; homeless animals; the Green Bay Packers; chocolate and chile; accuracy of ethnographic information; travel. He spent many years traveling to the Zuni reservation, getting to know the people and their art. He mounted two museum exhibits, served as consultant for a third, and authored three books on Zuni fetishes. Kent returned to Albuquerque five years ago to pursue his dream of creating a Zuni fetish museum. That museum dedicated to Zuni fetishes held its grand opening two days before his death. Although Kent was not there on the day, every item on exhibit was personally selected by him to tell the story of Zuni fetishes.
Kent leaves behind hundreds of friends made over his many years of travel and commerce.
We all miss him.
