Taking the approach that what art authorities find uncomfortable the public would likely enjoy, exhibitions Ann has curated have garnered favorable reviews in the <i>New York Times</i>, <i>Art in America</i>, <i>American Art Review</i>, and other publications. <p/> She brings the same attitude and philosophy to her first love: writing, especially a tangy variety of historical crime fiction. Ann's short stories have appeared in two editions (2003 and 2004) of the noir crime anthology <i>Fedora</i>. Her flash fiction story, "A Night In Town," appeared in the online zine <i>Punk Soul Poet</i>. In addition to curating and designing art exhibitions and writing crime stories, Ann is also an art writer and an adjunct professor of art history at the New York Institute of Technology.
