Daniel "Pepe" Rochon, born in 1940 in Appleton, Wisconsin, is a distinguished silversmith, builder, and biker based in Taos, New Mexico. His heritage is a rich tapestry: his father was of French and Ojibwe-Chippewa descent, an Anishinaabe group from Canada, while his mother was Dutch.
In the 1970s, Rochon became an integral part of Taos‘s vibrant art scene. He lived and worked at the Mabel Dodge Luhan House during its ownership by actor Dennis Hopper. This period was marked by collaboration with various artists and craftsmen, including his partnership with David Hopper, Dennis‘s brother, in constructing notable adobe structures such as the Return Gallery and the Ed and Trudy Healy Home in Arroyo Hondo, New Mexico.
