Her work has been exhibited in museums and galleries throughout the country, including The Library of Congress, Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, Speed Museum, and the Poindexter Gallery in New York City. She is a graduate of the Washington University School of Fine Arts, where she met and studied with Stephen Pace. They remained in touch, became friends and later rented the Pace's summer house in Bucks County, PA, as the Pace's began summering in Maine. Later Cooper Dobbins and her husband, Sandy Weiss, re-located there permanently.
