Hedda Sterne was a Romanian-born American artist who was an active member of the New York School of painters. Her work is often associated with Abstract Expressionism and Surrealism. She was also the only woman to appear in a notable photograph of abstract expressionist artists dubbed The Irascibles, although the group included other women, and Sterne herself later said she had actually not been an Irascible.
