Margaret LowengrundMargaret Lowengrund grew up in Philadelphia and studied at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts, and the New York Art Students League with Joseph Pennell and Charles Locke. She is known for her hard work and concern for American printmaking, particularly lithography. In the 1950's, Lowengrund opened a gallery for graphic arts in New York and combined it with a print workshop which eventually developed into the Pratt Graphic Center, directed by Andrew Stasick from 1966 to 1985. Her death from cancer in 1957 soundly affected American printmaking because of her avid dedication and promotion of the graphic arts. Lowengrund's work is in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, National Gallery of Art, the Library of Congress, and the Spencer Museum of Art, Kansas University.
