About Dana Sheridan
Dana Sheridan began building flutes in 1972 while studying music composition at the Berklee School in Boston, Massachusetts. He worked with the Wm. S. Haynes, Verne Q. Powell (becoming manager in 1981) and Brannen Brothers flute companies before introducing Sheridan flutes and headjoints in 1982. He retired from flute making in 2019, and his flutes and headjoints are now much sought-after.
