Education and Teaching
Barth received a bachelor of arts degree from the University of California, Davis and an Master of Fine Arts from the University of California, Los Angeles.

After receiving the MacArthur Fellowship in October 2012, she noted that she still plans to teach on a part-time basis because teaching forces her to "put language to" what she is thinking.
