American

Mary Giles was born in 1944 in St. Paul. She received a BS in art education from Minnesota State University in Mankato, Minnesota, and went on to teach art in the Twin Cities and St. Louis, Missouri. Her work has been displayed in numerous galleries and museums in the United States, at the Barbican Centre in London; she represented the US at the International Triennial of Tapestry in Lodz, Poland. In 2013, she was named The Master of Fiber Arts by the Renwick Alliance of the Smithsonian Museum.
