Life
Lamb was homeschooled by her parents, both artists, with her four siblings in New Hampshire until she entered the Academy, from which she graduated with concentrations in sculpture and painting. During her undergraduate years, she also attended the Harvard Extension School intermittently.
She left Philadelphia for France in 2001, dissatisfied with the Neo-Classicism dominant in American sculpture, and finding in the work of Jean Cardot an alternative aesthetic. That move served as a springboard for Lamb's own work and international career.

Famous quotes containing the word life:
“Shielded, what sorts of life are stirring yet:
Legs lagged like drains, slippers soft as fungus,
The gas and grate, the old cold sour grey bed.”
—Philip Larkin (1922–1986)
“What had really caused the women’s movement was the additional years of human life. At the turn of the century women’s life expectancy was forty-six; now it was nearly eighty. Our groping sense that we couldn’t live all those years in terms of motherhood alone was “the problem that had no name.” Realizing that it was not some freakish personal fault but our common problem as women had enabled us to take the first steps to change our lives.”
—Betty Friedan (20th century)
“Toiling,—rejoicing,—sorrowing,
Onward through life he goes;
Each morning sees some task begin,
Each evening sees its close;
Something attempted, something done,
Has earned a night’s repose.”
—Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1809–1882)
