This exhibition of book arts includes thirty-seven works from the traditions of papermaking, letterpress, bookbinding to non-traditional artmaking and self-publishing techniques, that celebrate the book as a vibrant contemporary art form.

Since that time, she has had over fifty one-person exhibitions including the International Museum of Photography at the Eastman House, the Museum of Contemporary Photography in Chicago, and Light Gallery and Witkin Gallery in NYC.

Her images are in numerous collections including the Museum of Modern Art, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the National Gallery of Canada, the Polaroid International Collection, the International Museum of Photography at the Eastman House, and the Center for Creative Photography in Tucson, Arizona.
