Her father was a successful architect, and she was exposed to the creative world from a young age. She studied art in the 1930s at prestigious institutions like the Parsons' School of Fine and Applied Arts, The Grand Central School of Art, the Art Students' League, and The New School. During this time, she explored various styles and techniques, eventually gravitating towards abstract expressionism in the 1950s.
