Biography

Leonie Reisberg was born in 1955 in Melbourne,[1] and studied Photography at R.M.I.T. for 2 years then at Prahran College of Advanced Education for a further 2 years. After teaching for a year, she went to U.S. to study for her Master of Fine Arts at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.

In 1978 Reisberg returned to Melbourne to work as a graphic designer before moving to Adelaide in 1979 where she took up a lectureship in Photography at Torrens College. In 1982 the Visual Arts Board of the Australia Council granted her a participation fee through their regional development program for a national touring exhibition conducted over 1981-2.[2]

Reisberg exhibited nationally and internationally into the 1990s, and at major Australia galleries in the 2000s.[3]

Works by Reisberg may be found in major collections in Australia[4][5] and overseas.[6][7] Since the 1990s she has practiced as an art therapist.
