A native New Yorker, Laura Anne began drawing at age three. Her preferred mediums are ink and graphite. Her work has been shown in more than 70 group exhibitions, in a solo show of 60 works, and in numerous presentations at the Outsider Art Fair. A signature that appears in a number of her pieces is the presence of one or more felines – either immediately visible to the viewer or requiring closer examination to be discovered. A graduate of Cornell University and the Bank Street College of Education, Laura Anne is a permanently certified and licensed former teacher and is a Crisis Intervention Team Panelist, serving as a liaison between first responders and people experiencing emotional distress. Says Laura Anne, "For any awards or honors I have received, I thank my muses – the cats that have graced my life.”
