She grew up in the midwest United States and attended Yavneh of Telshe Yeshiva, Washington University, and the Art Institute of Chicago, from which she received a bachelor of fine arts in painting. She was founder of the women's liberation movement and editor of Notes, a journal of radical feminism.
