Sherry Salari Sander (born 1941 in Montana) is a distinguished American sculptor celebrated for her expressive wildlife bronzes, crafted in a style that blends observation with a loose, impressionistic touch. Working from her studio on a 300-acre wildlife preserve near Glacier National Park, Sander draws direct inspiration from native creatures, otters, deer, eagles, wood ducks, and bears, capturing their essence through dynamic form and sensitive patination. Her monumental bronze monuments—installed at institutions such as the Buffalo Bill Historical Center, Denver Zoo, National Museum of Wildlife Art, and others—reflect her prominence in the field of wildlife sculpture. She’s earned major honors including the National Sculpture Society’s "Fellow" status, the Ranieri Sculpture Casting Award, and retrospective exhibitions at the Thomas Gilcrease Museum, cementing her stature within the sculpting community.
