Goodman Zissoff Stained Glass Studio has been in business for almost 20 years, although Christopher Goodman has been making stained glass for 41 years. He started working in glass in 1972, at the age of 17 with his father, Russell C. Goodman. At this time, Christopher's whole family was involved in the Russell C. Goodman Stained Glass Studio, Scarborough, Ontario. One of Christopher's first jobs was to work on the House of Commons, Parliament Buildings, Ottawa, Canada. This task lasted three years! Christopher continued to steadily work at his father's business while attending school. After graduating from Ontario College Art, he made stained glass his full time aspiration.

In 1988, the stained glass business took on a new employee, Angela Zissoff, Christopher's wife. She later became a partner in 1990 and in 1998 the business name changed to reflect this.
