Marie Magnetic (b. 1989) was born in Jackson, MI, USA, and resides in Chicago, USA. Growing up in a small town in southwestern Michigan helped to shape Marie's values as she witnessed friends and family experience addiction, mental health issues, poverty, and other forms of systemic disadvantage.

Marie has exhibited in group shows at the Jackson Junge Gallery, Woman Made Gallery, Fulton Street Collective, and a solo exhibit at Little Broken Things Hair Salon. Her art and poetry have been published in Headlight Review, Decapitate Magazine, and Handbasket Zine. Marie was awarded a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Central Michigan University. Recently, she received an honorable mention from The Grey Cube Gallery and an artist grant from the Haven Foundation.
