Kerry Martin, Senior Designer at Clarion Books in New York City, will discuss the process of creating a picture book from initial sketch stage to the finished product, including what goes on behind the scenes while you wait for a response. Also discussed will be the dos and don'ts of sending unsolicited art samples. Private portfolio reviews will precede the discussion.

After graduating, she worked at a design studio, a letterpress print shop, and several magazines.
