Over his 51-year career, Dale Claude Lamphere completed 60 major public sculptures from the Basilica of the National Shrine in Washington D.C. to the City of Burbank, CA. He was appointed South Dakota Artist Laureate by Governor Daugaard in 2014, a position that has been vacant since the 1983 death of Oscar Howe who was given the honor in 1954. Lamphere was reappointed by Governor Noem in 2019. He recently received the American Institue of Architects South Dakota Champion of Architecture award for "bringing great public art to the people of South Dakota and beautifully articulating the intersection of art and engineering."
