American studio pottery- need ID on potter

I wonder if anyone can help me identify the creator of this pot. I presume it is North American, because of the way the date is written. I thought the mark was a the monogram “TA” incorporated into a little house, but have had no luck finding the maker. Obviously this was done be an experienced artist. Wheel thrown with etched and inlay glazes. Any ideas? Is there a current reference book for contempory American clay artists? I tried the Marks project but no luck there
