Wagner attended Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut in 1971. In 1974 she received her B.A. and went to Harvard University for her Ph.D. which she received in 1980. In 2010 Anne Wagner and her husband T. J. Clark, who is also an art historian and taught at UC Berkeley, retired in 2010 and moved to London.

Lowry at Tate Britain in 2013 "to argue for his achievement as Britain’s pre-eminent painter of the industrial city."
