Ms Grossman studied at the Yale School of Music and Art in Norfolk, earned her BFA from Cooper Union, and then continued her studies at Acadamie dur Kunst, Munich, Germany.

She has had many solo exhibits, and has received the Connecticut Commission on the Arts fellowship grant, plus awards from the National Academy of Design.
