In 1972, she served as chief of installation of the American Pavillion at the Venice Biennale; the following year, a studio fire destroyed much of her work. Four of her original works are owned by the Smithsonian American Art Museum; copies of some are owned by the National Gallery of Art and the Phillips Collection. Two of her sculptures were obtained by the National Museum of Women in the Arts, in Washington, DC and a drawing was accessioned by the Katzen Arts Center at American University. Age cracking to the paint, a few scattered losses.
