A second memoir, Street Angel, received the Silver Medal from Independent Publishers Awards and was short listed for Book of the Year/memoir by Foreword Magazine. Street Angel is set in Newfoundland in the 1950s, but ranges over a 70-year period involving the same protagonist and her family.
After growing up in Newfoundland, Magie Dominic moved to the United States, where she studied at The Art Institute of Pittsburgh, New School University, Franklin Furnace, and Open Theatre. She was involved in the Off-Off-Broadway theatre movement in New York City at Joe Cino's Caffe Cino, where she performed and directed. She curated Caffe Cino - History of Off-Off Broadway at Lincoln Centre in 1985. She donated papers, photographs and Caffé Cino memorabilia to the Library for the Performing Arts at Lincoln Center in 2011, establishing The Magie Dominic Caffé Cino Archives. Dominic was also involved with La MaMa Experimental Theatre Club during the late 1960s, performing in and stage managing multiple productions. Performance credits include Saul Paul Sirag's There's The Wrong Number Of Teeth (1966), Charles L. Mee Jr.'s God Bless Us, Everyone (1967), and a Tom O'Horgan directed production of Changes (1968). She stage managed plays such as Tom Eyen's Miss Nefertiti Regrets (1966), as well as directed lighting and performed other technical work for various productions. Dominic also had a solo exhibition at La MaMa Galleria, December 10–20, 1998, titled "Stations of the Cross/Female Face of Christ".
