Her parents were carpenter Clarence W. Hoff and Ada A. Hayes. In 1923, she fell ill with typhoid fever and was bedridden for the summer. She spent this time drawing and making paper cutouts. EducationEducated at Tulsa Central High School and Tulsa University (1930–31). She studied art at the National Academy of Art in Chicago (1934–35), the Art Institute of Chicago (1936-37), the University of Chicago (Audit Class in Art History) (1941–44) and Hull House. CareerDuring the 1950s she exhibited paintings and prints in shows around the US and in 1955 held an individual show at the Wildenstein Galleries in Paris. In 1960 she moved to live in New York City, where her work was frequently shown in Hadler-Rodriguez Galleries, Saidenberg Gallery, Babcock Gallery, Betty Parsons Gallery, and Banter Gallery[2]. After the move to New York, her work became more brightly colored and less earth-toned. Her Chicago paintings were typical of mid-century modern urbanism. In New York she moved on to work in collage, initially with paper and later with canvas, for which she became primarily known.[3] Personal lifeMargo Hoff's figurative approach was deeply inspired by her frequent trips to Mexico in the 1940's, where she witnessed the works of 1930's Mexican painters. Married to George Buehr. She died in her Manhattan loft, which served as her painting studio and home, at the age of 98. Her ashes were placed in Graceland Cemetery, Chicago. Selected works
