Jacquelyn O'Callaghan is an artist who was born and raised in Atlanta, GA, but who now lives in Rochester, NY. She holds a BA from Tulane University in New Orleans and an MFA from School of Visual Arts in New York City.

She feels that a constant sense of existing in-between, experiences with motherhood, a preoccupation with music and lyrics, and the nexus of personal histories and narrative have most directed her work.
