She studied Fabrics at the Art Institute of Chicago (1975-1978) and received a BFA from Pratt Institute in Brooklyn in 1981. She relocated to Chicago in 1991 and notably participated in the 1995 Whitney Biennial in New York, followed by the presentation of her work at the Venice Biennial that same year. She is the first transgender artist ever to be exhibited at the National Gallery in Washington, D.C, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Whitney, and LACMA.
