Born in the Bronx in 1926, ROSALYN DREXLER first began exhibiting her work during the late 1950s. Since then, she has had over 15 solo exhibitions. Drexler’s paintings are in the collections of many museums, including: the Albright-Knox Art Gallery; the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, Smithsonian Institution; the Wadsworth Athenaeum; the Walker Art Center; and the Whitney Museum of American Art. In addition to her work as a visual artist, Drexler is also an accomplished novelist and playwright. She published her first play in 1963 and her first novel in 1965. She is the recipient of three Obie Awards, as well as an Emmy Award for her work on Lily Tomlin’s television special Lily (co-written with Richard Pryor).

KATY SIEGEL is the Eugene V. and Clare E. Thaw Endowed Chair at Stony Brook University, and Curator at Large at Brandeis University’s Rose Art Museum. Her books include "Since 45: America and the Making of Contempo­rary Art" (2011) and “'The heroine Paint': After Frankenthaler" (2015). Among her curated exhibitions are "High Times, Hard Times: New York Painting, 1967-1975" (2006), "Light Years: Jack Whitten, 1971–1974" (2013), and "Rosalyn Drexler: Who Does She Think She Is?" (2016).
