GERALDINE HERBERT is The Creative Center's co-founder. Her work at Memorial Sloan-Kettering as a social worker with adults and children on the bone marrow transplant service, and later in a private psychotherapy practice led to her belief that "Medicine may cure the body, but art heals the spirit."

ROBIN GLAZER is The Creative Center's Director. She has been with The Center since 1994 when she met co-founder Adrienne Assail at a coffeeshop, where they sat past midnight, brainstorming about a place where women with cancer could come and make art together. A cancer survivor and mother of five, Robin is a painter, printmaker and art teacher in the NYC schools. Her idea of a successful day is getting yet another person to "see like an artist".
