==Life and work==
"I make jewelry to be worn. And if it tells about scary, icky subjects, then so much the better for the person who has the cojones to wear it in public."
She was born in Baltimore, Maryland in 1948, the daughter of Charlie Scott Jr. and noted quilt maker Elizabeth Talford Scott.〔(Maria Gallagher, "The Scotts Reap What they Sew: Artists are Influenced by Slavery, African-American Themes," ''Daily News'' (September 8, 1989). )〕 She has a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the Maryland Institute College of Art, and an Masters of Fine Arts from the Instituto Allende in Mexico. She is also influenced by craft traditions in her extended family of "quilters, woodworkers, basketweavers, chair caners, planters and blacksmiths", where people developed skills in more than one craft so that they could survive.〔
Scott's works are held by the Detroit Institute of Arts, Michigan, the Mildred Lane Kemper Art Museum, St. Louis, Missouri, the
Mint Museum of Art, North Carolina, the Spencer Museum of Art at the University of Kansas, and the Smithsonian.
