She co-authored - with Maurice Brown - Getty-commissioned 'Artmaking and Education', (University of Illinois Press, 1993) and co-edited with Caroline Sloat and Georgia Barnhill 'The Cultivation of American Artists in the Nineteenth Century' (Oak Knoll Press with American Antiquarian Society, 1997). Dr Korzenik's research is largely based upon ephemera - original documents, sales publicity, how-to-draw books, and surviving child art from the nineteenth century. Her first book 'Drawn to Art' (University Press of New England, Fall 1985) won the 1986 Boston Globe L.L. Winship Literary Award. It documented nineteenth century art education's shift from informal private teaching to institutionalized, government support. Throughout her years of teaching about American art education history Dr Korzenik gathered a collection now donated to The Huntingdon Library and documented in Korzenik's 'The Objects of Art Education' (Huntingdon Library Press 2004). She was a founding member of Harvard Project Zero and contributing author to the project book, 'Arts and Cognition'. She also founded and served as first president of The Friends of Longfellow House, an advocacy and preservationist group. Dr Korzenik earned her doctorate at Harvard in 1972.
