Lorraine Helen Goulet (known as Lorrie Goulet), was an American sculptor and painter. She was recognized primarily for her direct carving in stone and wood, and for works that often celebrated women, families, and diverse cultures.
In 1943, Goulet enrolled at Black Mountain College in North Carolina, where she studied painting and drawing with Josef Albers and weaving with Anni Albers.
Goulet held her first solo exhibition in 1948 at the Clay Club (later known as the Sculpture Center) in New York City. Her work appeared in numerous group exhibitions beginning that same year, including several Annual Exhibitions at the Whitney Museum of American Art. She also exhibited at the fine arts pavilion of the New York World's Fair in 1964–1965.
Beginning in 1971, Kennedy Galleries in New York represented her work, mounting regular solo exhibitions through 1986. In 1998, the National Museum of Women in the Arts in Washington, D.C., presented a solo exhibition titled Fifty Years of Making Sculpture. Her work was later represented by David Findlay Jr. Gallery and the Harmon-Meek Gallery in Naples, Florida.
