From 2011 - 2013 I was VP Publicity for Welcome Books, one of the 30 or so client publishers distributed by Random House, now Penguin Random House. Welcome published a variety of visual books, from cookbooks to travel and art. After they downsized (they were sold to Rizzoli), I chose to present my career as book publicist as a coffee table book—RESUME. By the time I finished it, I decided I wanted to add "book designer" to my repertoire. The digital book includes five book jackets. All abstract photos within are mine (tar on suburban blacktop, believe it or not). The cover was inspired by the work of Alvin Lustig, in particular his cover for William Carlos Williams “Paterson.” See cover/postcard next to my version at the bottom of this page.
