DESCRIPTION

From 2021-24, I was the senior art director of The New Yorker. Each week I commissioned full-page illustration for all major sections of the print magazine, and designed layouts for both print and digital. I also produced illustrated interactive features, animation, and custom art for special issues, working closely with editors, writers, and the entire creative team. I was a frequent spokesperson for the art department, giving talks and workshops on New Yorker illustration at festivals, conferences, and schools.
