Goyette with the Albert Nelson Marquis Lifetime Achievement Award. An accomplished listee, Ms. Goyette celebrates many years' experience in her professional network, and has been noted for achievements, leadership qualities, and the credentials and successes she has accrued in her field. As in all Marquis Who's Who biographical volumes, individuals profiled are selected on the basis of current reference value. Factors such as position, noteworthy accomplishments, visibility, and prominence in a field are all taken into account during the selection process.
A talented artist and educator, Ms. Goyette spent over 35 years in the classroom as a humanities teacher teaching architecture, writing, and history before retiring. Today, she continues to focus on her artwork as a sculptor and potter, which she has been actively engaged in for decades.
Distinguished for her expertise and well-known use of natural forms in her representational and abstract pieces, Ms. Goyette's sculpting and pottery are done by hand without using any electric tools. Some of her work has been on display in various galleries and street shows, including at the Swann Gallery, Rubiner Gallery, and Temple Beth El. She has also sold many of her pieces and will be looking to secure a broker to sell off the remainder of her collection. Ms. Goyette is always available to mentor other artists as needed and looks forward to remaining connected to the artistic world for the foreseeable future.
Ms. Goyette's key to success as an artist was finding alternative ways to earn a living. Instead of pursuing her passion full-time, she focused on teaching academics as her primary career.
As an artist, Ms. Goyette garnered several opportunities to travel and visit many famous art galleries. She also had the chance to meet Ferenc Varga while pursuing her master's degree, a leading Hungarian sculptor from Hungary during World War II. Ms. Goyette spent more than five years working in his studio on weekends learning how to sculpt. Among other notable experiences, she carved a piece made from marble, which was acquired from the same quarry where Michelangelo had retrieved his stones.
In her community, Ms. Goyette has supported various local organizations supporting veterans, such as the Paralyzed Veterans of America. Moreover, Ms. Goyette donates to D.E.L.T.A. animal rescue.
Highly educated, Ms. Goyette received a Bachelor of Arts from Central Michigan University in 1959 and a Master of Art and Doctor of Education from Wayne State University in Detroit with a concentration in humanities and multicultural education in 1964 and 1995, respectively. Active in her field, she has been a member of the Sculptors Guild of Michigan and the Association for Supervision and Curriculum Development.
