Meredith Bergmann is an American sculptor, poet, and essayist[1] whose work is said to "forge enriching links between the past and the concerns of the present."[2] She studied at Wesleyan University and graduated from The Cooper Union with a BFA. While at Cooper Union she discovered sculpture and then traveled around Europe and studied in Pietrasanta, Italy. Her memorial to Countee Cullen is in the collection of the New York Public Library. In 2003, she unveiled the Boston Women's Memorial on Commonwealth Avenue Mall in Boston which includes statues of Phillis Wheatley, Abigail Adams, and Lucy Stone.[3] In 2006, Bergmann's statue of the famous contralto Marian Anderson was unveiled on the campus of Converse College in Spartanburg, South Carolina.[4][5] In 2010, Bergmann created a sculpture of an enslaved girl named Sally Maria Diggs, or "Pinky," whose freedom was purchased for $900 in 1860.[6] Bergmann also completed a commission commemorating the events of September 11, 2001 for New York City's Cathedral of St. John the Divine entitled Memorial to September 11.[7] In July of 2021 the Roosevelt Island Disabled Association unveiled Bergmann's "FDR Hope Memorial" on Roosevelt Island, New York City.[8] In 2023 New York Governor Kathy Hochul unveiled a bas relief portrait of Ruth Bader Ginsburg by Bergmann for the “Million Dollar Staircase” in the State House in Albany, NY.[9] Bergmann serves on the advisory board of The New Historia and is an Honorary Vice President of the National Association of Women Artists.
