Arts Memphis TV presents Suzy Hendrix
Suzy Hendrix is a multi-faceted artist and musician currently living and working in Memphis. Her creative career began early, when she left the states to pursue modeling abroad. After several successful years working as a model in both Europe and Asia, Suzy shifted her focus to music - picking up a soprano saxophone and becoming a member of the avant-garde performance band Urban Sax. After touring with the band for many years, she was eventually called back home to Memphis. Currently working in the mediums of glass and tile - constructing stained-glass windows, murals, and sculptures, Suzy truly embodies the Memphis creative spirit.
