In 1997, the Baltimore Museum of Art organized a twenty-year retrospective of her work, entitled The Music of Regret, which included 150 photographs. Simmons was the recipient of the 2005 Roy Lichtenstein Residency in Visual Arts at The American Academy in Rome. The artist’s major monograph, “Laurie Simmons: Walking, Talking, Lying,” was published by Aperture in the fall of 2005.
