Lum has been awarded grants and fellowships from the Guggenheim Foundation, the New York Foundation for the Arts, the New York State Council on the Arts, and the National Endowment for the Arts. Her residencies include the MacDowell Colony and the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study at Harvard. Represented by Carroll and Sons in Boston and Frederieke Taylor Gallery in New York, Lum teaches at Bennington College in Vermont.
