In 2001-2002, she completed two large lobby murals for the Shiodome City Center, designed by Roche-Dinkeloo and Associates, in the Minato district of Tokyo.
Joyce Kozloff, Joan Snyder and Melissa Meyers worked together on Heresies: A Feminist Publication on Art and Politics, a journal produced between 1977 and 1992.
