Jane Dalrymple-Hollo grew up in rural Mississippi, received a BFA at the University of Alabama and an MFA at the Maryland Institute College of Art. She served a three year apprenticeship in Library Conservation at Johns Hopkins University and, during that time, earned a MLA (Master of Liberal Arts) through the Johns Hopkins School of Continuing Education. She now devotes her full attention to art making, and lives and works in Boulder, Colorado with her husband, the poet Anselm Hollo, and their three feline friends, Misha, Phinneas, and Zophiel.
