Who is Jane Gray?

Jane Gray is a British stained glass artist. She trained at the Kingston School of Arts from 1949 to 1951, where she specialised in weaving and stained glass, and then studied at the Royal College of Art until 1955. She worked as an assistant during this time on the nave windows of Coventry Cathedral.
