A native of Kentucky, she spent years in Brooklyn and Manhattan before migrating to New Jersey. Levy has shown her drawings and paintings for decades, in galleries, nonprofit spaces, and museums.

It is in private collections in the US, Spain, England, France, and Israel, including Seagram, Dow Jones, Pinhook Distillery, and the National Portrait Gallery at the Smithsonian Institution. Her 36 years as a "Hedcut" Illustrator for The Wall Street Journal, gave her the unusual pleasure of making a living drawing pictures, for which she won numerous awards, and was featured in print and on television news.
