Edris Eckhardt (1/28/1905 – 4/27/1998) was a American artist associated with the Cleveland School. Born in Cleveland, Ohio, Eckhardt was trained at the Cleveland School of Art (now Cleveland Institute of Art), studying at the same time as ceramicist and industrial designer Viktor Schreckengost. While still a student, she was employed as an artist and designer at the noted Cleveland ceramics firm Cowan Pottery. Early in her career she changed her first name from Edythe to the more androgynous Edris in order to counter bias against female artists.
