I recently joined Pratt Institute’s Oral History Project, reflecting on my time there: from studying Illustration in the 1960s to teaching Visual Concepts (1976–84). In 1977, Strathmore featured one of my classes in an ad celebrating my role as both artist and educator. It was fun🖋️📒

My early computer work, Hand Memory (1990), is on the cover of VERBUM magazine, vol 4.3 published in the winter of 1990/1991. Hand Memory was first made in 1986 in Japan on an NEC computer, and then printed with a machine that was the prototype of inkjet printers.
