Dodie Warren (1929-2018) was a key figure in Hawai‘i’s printmaking community. Born in Pittsburgh, she earned a BS degree in zoology from Chatham College in 1950 and became a scientific illustrator for the Felton Design Studio in Washington, D.C. She studied watercolor in San Francisco. In 1965, she moved to Hawai‘i and continued watercolor studies with Hon Chew Hee. She became interested in printmaking after taking a class at the University of Hawai‘i and went on to earn an MFA degree in printmaking there in 1979. She chose to devote herself primarily to the time-consuming and labor-intensive medium of mezzotint for which she is best known.
