Judith worked at LRAG during the Embassy Cultural House era and has been a long-time supporter of the arts in London. The first time she attended an event at the ECH was in 1983, when LRAG's curator of contemporary art Matthew Teitelbaum presented a lecture.

More recently, she has been involved in an exhibition of Greg Curnoe’s work at the Art Gallery of Ontario that was also shown at Museum London. For the Art Canada Institute, she wrote the monograph Greg Curnoe: Life and Work. She is currently an adjunct professor in the Department of Visual Arts at Western University. |
