Her biography, The Man Who Designed the Future: Norman Bel Geddes and the Invention of 20th Century America (Melville House, NY/London) was voted "One of the Top Ten Art Books of 2017" by the American Library Association.

She has worked in professional theater (both onstage and designing/running tech) and has had some success as a graphic designer and mixed-media sculptor.
