She then received an MSW, working as a therapist for several years with heroin addicts and their families. Returning to her passion for making art, she began making staged photographs. She earned an MFA from Boston University in graphic design, a field in which psychology melds with art. She spent most of her grad school years experimenting in the darkroom. In the early '90s, Fran began incorporating photography and digital collage into her design work. She designed several visually rich CD-ROMs and later became an art director at AOL-Time Warner. There, she created the preeminent website devoted to African American culture. Between professional life and raising her two daughters, Fran continued to create her personal art, combining her illustrative and photographic skills with a passion for paradox, illusion, assemblage, and the dislocations of time and place. Fran is an Affiliated Scholar at the Women's Studies Research Center at Brandeis University and teaches workshops nationally and abroad. She is also a recipient of many honors and grants and has been a Resident Artist at Holsnoy Kloster, Norway, Millay Arts, The Studios of Key West, and the Vermont Studio Center. She is represented by Pucker Gallery (Boston), Afterimage Gallery (Dallas), Susan Spiritus Gallery (Newport Beach, CA), Sohn Fine Art Gallery, and Galeria Photo/Graphica (San Miguel de Allende, Mexico). She resides in New England.
