I believe that his name is John Challis.  He built harpsichords in
Ypsilanti, Michigan.  There was one of his aluminum beauties at UofM when I
lived in Ann Arbor during the 80s.  There may be some info on him in
Zuckerman's harpsichord book (I don't recall the title, but it is a large
pictorial compendium of harpsichord makers.
