Careers in Visual Arts

Previously published as "School of Arts Guide to Careers" (1987), this book surveys the many areas of the visual arts that students might consider when choosing a career path, and for visual arts professionals who are thinking of making a career change. The fields that are covered include art direction, film and video, the fine arts, graphic design, illustration, children's book design and illustration, industrial design and photography. Interviews are also included with visual art luminaries such as Steven Heller, Roy Lichtenstein, Milton Glaser, Paula Scher, Marshall Arisman, and Duane Michals. Revised to reflect how state-of-the-art technological developments have affected each field and to include more than 25 conversations with successful working professionals.
