Biography
Adeline Valentine Pond was born in Boston. She began her art studies at the Massachusetts Normal Art School in 1880.[3]
She met Herbert Adams in Paris in 1887. She posed for a marble bust that was eventually exhibited at the 1893 Chicago World's Fair.[4] The couple married in 1889.[5] Adams advocated for female sculptors including Laura Gardin Fraser, Evelyn Beatrice Longman, Janet Scudder, Bessie Porter Vonnoh, Abastenia St. Leger Eberle and Anna Hyatt Huntington.[4] She also advocated for war memorials to be created by professional sculptors rather than mass-produced in factories.[4]
Adams was a member of the Cornish (NH) Equal Suffrage League.[6]

Adams's seven published texts include:[7]
- "The spirit of American sculpture"
- "Daniel Chester French, sculptor"
