Jeannine Mosely

Jeannine Mosely (born May 16, 1953 in Pittsburgh, PA) holds a Ph.D. in EECS from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and is known for her work as an origami artist.

After finishing her degree, Mosely taught as a visiting lecturer for a year at the University of California, Berkeley in the EECS Department.

[4] In 2012, the University of Southern California Libraries commissioned Mosely to co-lead a project in conjunction with Margaret Wertheim, their resident Discovery Fellow,[5] to engage hundreds members of the USC community in building the Mosely Snowflake Sponge, another fractal model, from approximately 49,000 business cards.

[8] The catalog for the Machine-Menger show was published as a small artist's book "A Field Guide to the Business Card Menger Sponge," co-written by Mosely and Wertheim, the exhibition curator.

Mosely has also developed mathematical techniques for designing and analyzing curved origami models such as her "Orb,"[11] "Bud,"[12] and "Sails.

In 2012 one of these models was bronzed and gilded by sculptor Kevin Box with help from artist Dick Esterle.
