Riley has been a visiting artist or artist-in- residence at Dartmouth College, the College of William & Mary and the Jerusalem Studio School. His awards include a Fulbright Fellowship to Italy and a Klots Artist Residency in Rochefort-en-Terre, France. His work has been shown in galleries and museums in New York, Ohio, Indiana, Virginia and Maryland and in France. Riley is an associate professor of fine arts at the Columbus College of Art and Design in Columbus, Ohio. He lives in rural Vermont with his wife, Dianne Tanner.
