Pat Steir studied art at Boston University and then transferred to Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, where she received her BFA in 1961. Since the beginning of her career, Steir has been equally fascinated by painting, drawing, and printmaking. Her first lithographs were produced in 1973 for Chicago’s Landfall Press; the following year she received a National Endowment for the Arts grant for painting. In 1975 Steir devoted herself exclusively to drawing. Renewed by the experience, she returned to other media in 1977.
