Martha “Martie” Zelt was born in Washington, Pennsylvania in 1930. Her first exposure to New Mexico was Alamogordo during World War II where her father, who was in the Air Force, was stationed for a time. Zelt credits her mother’s career in interior design as one of many early influences that would later impact her own artistic practice. Zelt studied at Connecticut College and then the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in the 1940s-1950s before receiving a BA from Temple University in Philadelphia in 1968.
