She received her B.F.A. from the University of Wisconsin at Madison in 1980 and her M.F.A. in photography from the Rhode Island School of Design, Providence, 1989. She has exhibited her photographs in galleries in Boston and elsewhere. Through her work, which includes photograms and photography combined with other media such as relief casts, French explores the boundary between the actual object and its image.
