Abstract	From the 1920s through the 1940s, a number of artist-teachers developed methods of creative self-expression in their teaching. The life and teachings of artist and art educator Mabel D'Amico (1909-1998), wife of Museum of Modern Art museum educator Victor D'Amico, are considered within this context. This article attempts to construct an educational biography of Mabel D'Amico using oral history as a primary method. While Victor D'Amico's story as an art educator has been told, Mabel D'Amico's story has remained in his shadow. Through her work and personal philosophy Mabel D'Amico attempted to create closer relationships among her students, the school, and the students' home and community. Thus, understanding Mabel D'Amico's life as an artist and an educator can be a powerful way to uncover hidden histories of artist-teachers and women leaders from the era of pedagogical progressives in art education history.
