Prior to coming to the Gallery, Brodie worked at the National Museum of American Art between 1985 and 1986 and the Philadelphia Museum of Art from 1978 through 1985. She was a visiting artist at Birgit Skiöld’s Print Workshop in London from 1976 to 1977 and taught printmaking at the Rhode Island School of Design in 1976.
