Susan Rethorst was born in Washington, D.C. in 1951. She began creating modern dance works in 1975. Rethorst studied dance with Judith Dunn (of Judson Dance Theater) at Bennington College and graduated in 1974. Some of performance practices have included "dailiness" and "stealing".

Internationally her work has been produced internationally by the Holland Festival (Amsterdam), Teatro Spazio Zero (Rome), the Kunsthalle Basel, Danse A Aix Festival (Aix-en-Provence, France), The Room Festival (Jerusalem), among others.
