Timeline
Yaacov Heller (born 1941) is an Israeli-American sculptor and jewelry designer based in Boca Raton, Florida, who is known for his sculptures of Biblical themes.
Heller was born in 1941 in Cleveland, Ohio, as Jack E. Heller into a traditional Jewish family.
He studied at the Cleveland Museum of Art and has served in the US Navy.
In 1965, he moved to California, and began to develop a wide range of custom-made gold jewelry.
Heller quickly became friends with some of Hollywood's royalty, creating custom art for them – including earrings for Shelley Winters, paintings and sculptures for Sammy Davis Jr., and a special pendant for the hit show, "The Courtship of Eddie's Father."
This pendant was commissioned to Heller by the show's producer, James Komack.
Heller created 150 fourteen-karat gold pendants, which represented the "clasped hands logo" of the show.
They were given as holiday gifts and worn by a "whos who" on the MGM lot, including Elizabeth Taylor, Elvis Presley, and Bill Bixby amongst many others.
Since the 1970s, Heller has been commissioned to create silver and bronze electroformed-cast representations of Biblical figures.
These were given to world leaders including Gerald Ford, King Sobhuza II, Husni Mubarak, Anwar Sadat, and John Vorster.
According to The Boca Newspaper and the Sun Sentinel newspaper, Heller has created a wide range of Judaica statues and busts, and figural statuaries such as the Fiddler on the Roof, Count and Countess de Hoernle, and the Bust of Benjamin Ferencz.
In 1972 he became a resident of Jerusalem, Israel, and was a member of Kibbutz Urim.
