If you're interested, that youtube channel has some interesting videos about her. The guy who runs the channel bought her old house and is currently restoring it. He saved the pottery and is telling her story.
Potters collect pottery because it...heavy, hard to sell, and has a story. Mary's variety is excellent. She explored many forms and firing methods. She made really nice spheres!
I have been following the series about her hoarder house on youtube but to be brutally honest, i have the feeling that her importance as a potter has been inflated by curiosity inc because... Well they need to sell that house! And of course it's going to be beneficial for them if she were of some relevance to the arts rather then, say, a random garage potter. So while it's clearly not up to me to decide wether she's another Lucy Rie or not, as far as I am concerned, I'm not buying it.
