Cairo-born artist, Margo Veillon attended school in Egypt and Switzerland before moving to Paris in 1929 to study fine art. She returned to Egypt in 1932, where she worked for the rest of her life, though traveled widely and spent extended periods in England and the US. Her work has been exhibited throughout Egypt and Europe. Today, a large collection of her works is housed in the American University of Cairo's collections.
