Kiersten N. Williams was born in Memphis in 1981. She attended Overton High School where she actively pursued art in its advanced program.

She received a Business Management degree from University of Memphis in 2004. After a brief hiatus from practicing art while earning the business degree, Williams reclaimed her passion for creating and has been dedicated to art-making ever since.

Currently you can see Kiersten's work at the Dixon Gallery and Gardns (Now through November 29) as part of the show, Voices of a New South.  The opening reception will be held Thursday, September 17th.  She is also currently in exhibition at the African-American Museum in Chattanooga, TN (through Nov. 131) and she's scheduled to have a show at the National Civil Rights Museum within the next month.
