Ragus’ work in photocollage has been exhibited in one per- son and group exhibits in the US and abroad. Trained as
a painter at Wellesley College (BA) and Columbia University (MFA), she turned to photography in the 1980s. She considers herself a painter who uses photo fragments as brushstrokes on a larger field. She was a founding partner and Vice President
of Fine Arts Express, Inc. (1978–1994) and an Assistant Profes- sor of Art at Regis College (1995–2002). Ragus is a three-time MacDowell Fellow and has been artist in residence in various venues including Gros Morne National Park (Newfoundland), Yosemite National Park (Califorina), Sitka Center for Art & Ecol- ogy (Oregon), Hermitage Artist Retreat (Florida), Moulin a Nef/ Virginia Center for the Arts (Auvillar, France), and elsewhere.
