Jeff Jewitt
Jeff Jewitt has been writing articles about finishing for Fine Woodworking for more than 10 years and in 2003 won the first-place Golden Hammer writing award for magazine articles. He is the author of Taunton’s Complete Illustrated Guide to Finishing (2005), Hand-Applied Finishes (1997), Great Wood Finishes (1999), Spray Finishing Made Simple, and Refinishing Furniture Made Simple. In addition to writing and running a finishing-supply company with his wife, Susan, Jewitt finds time to refinish furniture, teach, and cycle. Picking up from a somewhat disastrous earlier career as an aspiring musician, Jewitt composed and recorded the theme music for Scott Phillips’ television series The American HomeShop, which runs on PBS stations nationwide.
