SUSAN O'MALLEY (1976 - 2015), was a San Francisco/Oakland based artist and curator. She used simple and recognizable tools of engagement—offering a Pep Talk, distributing flyers in a neighborhood's mailbox, hanging inspirational posters—to offer entry into an understood, and sometimes humorous, interaction of everyday life. O'Malley received her BA from Stanford University in 1999, and her MFA from California College of the Arts with a focus in Social Practice. She had participated in programs and exhibitions at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, Romer Young Gallery, Southern Exposure, Hardware Store Gallery, CCA, Mission 17, Curiosity Shoppe, The Lab, Headlands, and the SJICA. Her work is in the collection of the SFMOMA as well as many other public and private institutions.
