Katie Block held her first gallery position in Boston in 1989 as the director of the Harcus gallery. She then went on to co-found the Miller Block Gallery, which for 19 years was a leading contemporary art gallery in Boston focusing on midcareer and emerging artists with an international reputation.  Katie's aesthetic vision was responsible for the first solo shows of artists such as Amy Cutler and Laylah Ali. Both of whom have gone on to have successful international careers. Miller Block Gallery also had debut exhibitions of established artists Marco Magee, Angela Dufesne, Scott Petermen, Roland Flexner, Lori Nix, Ed Pien and Daniel Rich. The gallery's exhibitions and its stable of artists were consistently reviewed and highlighted regularly in The New York Times, Chicago Tribune, Chicago Sun Times, Boston Globe, The Village Voice, New Yorker Magazine, New York Magazine, Artforum, Art News, Art On Paper, and Art in America.
