the video, originally created in 2013, has just been updated and is now available for viewing on YouTube!

This 30 minute video is a documentary account of the artist's life, from her beginnings as a child in Brooklyn , through her student days at Cooper Union and early motherhood, her connections with the New York art and literary world of the 1950's and '60's, to the eventual recognition as an important fiber artist of international acclaim and her continuing prolific creative output at the age of 87. Vividly illustrated with selections from her work, she records the steps along the way, including her interactions with art world luminaries such as Joseph Cornell, Claes Oldenburg, Tom Wesselman and the Beat poets.
