Claudia Freedman’s output was relatively small, but her talent, though never fully given the chance to flourish, was arguably a worthy match to that of Barnett Freedman. She studied at Liverpool School of Art and the Royal College of Art. Working initially under her maiden name (née Guercio), she took the name Claudia Freedman from 1930 when the two were declared as married, although they had secretly married when they first met at the Royal College of Art in 1924.
