The following information was provided by the artist unless otherwise noted.
Maryann Riker was born and raised in western New Jersey in 1956. She studied art and received an undergraduate degree from Moravian College, and graduate degrees from Montclair State University and Vermont College.
She has exhibited her work in galleries throughout the United States including New York and Philadelphia and her work is included in museum, corporate, and private collections including AT&T and the National Museum of Women in the Arts. Her work has been juried and curated into shows by art world notables Ivan Karp, Bernice Steinbaum, Miriam Shapiro, and Sidney Goodman.
Her most recent work is inspired by her explorations into her past reflecting her upbringing in post-war America and American suburbia.
The artist states: "For the past several years my work has centered on a personal exploration of my relationships with my mother and my aunt who were early feminists. I have also researched how the media influenced the American family and the American suburbs in the post-war era. I internalized this research and the resulting body of work is the visual narrative."
