Beckman has been the recipient of numerous awards and residencies, and her work is in many collections, including the Library of Congress; the Boston Public Library; the permanent collection of Harvard University; the Farnsworth Museum and the Portland Museum of Art.

Beckman has participated in five residence programs at US National Parks, including Acadia National Park; Rocky Mountain National Park; Hovenweep National Park; Badlands National Park; Grand Canyon National Park; and Mesa Verde National Park.
