She has received awards and grants from many organizations including the American Society of Landscape Architects, Stone Institute’s Tucker Award of Design Excellence, American Institute of Architects, Art Commission of the City of New York, New York State Council on the Arts, National Endowment for the Arts, John Simon Guggenheim Foundation and Academician of the National Academy.
Her sculpture is in the collections of many museums including Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago, MOMA, Brooklyn Museum, Crystal Bridges Museum of Contemporary Art, Bentonville AR, Israel Museum, Jerusalem, Phillips Collection, Wash, DC, and the Walker Art Center.
