Herrmann’s creative bent began early while growing up in New York City. Because both her parents were working artists, Herrmann's young life comprised of countless trips to museums and galleries. She began to study painting at age 13 with the painter / muralist, Anthony Toney, and continued her early training at CornellUniversity, Bennington College, and Alfred University throughout her adolescence. She later earned her BFA at SUNY Purchase, in Purchase, New York.
In 1985, Herrmann had her first solo show at the Vorpal Gallery in Soho, NY. In the 90’s, her paintings were displayed at the National Endowment for The Arts in Washington, D.C. Numerous group shows followed in New York, Miami, Connecticut, Washington, D.C., and Holland.
