Bio info:
Madelaine Beverly Ginsberg was born in 1931 in Bridgeport, Connecticut. She pursued both her B.A. and M.S. from the University of Bridgeport, and followed these degrees up with graduate training in art therapy from the College of New Rochelle, New York. She eventually left the College to focus on lessons at the Art Students League and American Art School in New York City before returning to Connecticut to take additional courses at Silvermine College of Art in Norwalk. It was here that she met and married Stanley Ginsberg in 1959, with whom she had one son. She became a graphic designer and fashion illustrator for several local companies before joining the staff of the Stamford Museum. She began teaching art classes to children and adults at the Museum in 1970, and became Assistant Director of Art at the museum from 1977 to 1990. That year when Stanley retired from the Connecticut Department of Consumer Protection the couple relocated to Bradenton, Florida. It wasn’t long before Madelaine joined the Petticoat Painters, the oldest continuously functioning all-female artists group in the country, eventually becoming its President in the 2000s. After 2008, when Stanley passed away, she became a member of the National League of American Penwomen and Women Contemporary Artists, and her work was exhibited at Ringling College of Art and Design in Sarasota several times, most recently in 2018. She is also a co-founder of The Arts for Special People, Inc., a non-profit corporation formed to present the arts to special and disabled populations and encourage their involvement, and her paintings can be found in many private, corporate, and museum collections throughout the United States.
