Life
Dehn was born in Nevada, Missouri; she died at her home in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Dehn met the artist Adolf Dehn while she worked at the Art Students League and they married later. The two artists worked side by side for many years, part of a group of artists who influenced the history of 20th century American Art. Their Chelsea brownstone was a place where artists, writers, and intellectuals often gathered.
The Dehns made annual trips to France to work on lithographs at the Atelier Desjobert in Paris. The Dehns’ other travels included visits to Key West, Colorado, Mexico, and countries such as Greece, Haiti, Afghanistan, and India.
After moving to New Mexico in 1985, some of Dehn's painting began to take on a sculptural quality, as she began working materials such as clay and metallic substances into her paintings.
