Ami Mali Hicks (1867–1954) was an American feminist, writer, artist, and organizer. Hicks art focused on textiles and other crafts, among other mediums. Though she was tutored in the arts, much of her skill was gained through self study.[1] In addition to her artwork, Hicks wrote books on art instruction and criticism. Hicks was a longtime administrator for Free Acres, an independent, collectivized community in New Jersey. She worked with the Women's Political Union and was a member of Heterodoxy, two radical organizations that challenged some of the more placid activism of women's movements and suffragists. She died in 1954.
