The Who the What and the When at PowerHouse Arena

Jay Sacher October 13, 2014

I have an essay in this book, curated and compiled by Also Design and published earlier this month by Chronicle Books. My contribution, about a lesser-known member of Lewis and Clark's Corps of Discovery, was as much fun to write as it was to research. The rest of the book is pretty darn amazing--writers and illustrators working in tandem like chocolate and peanut butter.

The Also crew is hosting a signing/party event on Friday October 24th at Powerhouse Arena in DUMBO. Hit it up if you're in the area, or learn more about the book here. 

Hope to see you there!

Chicago Tribune Interview

Jay Sacher May 21, 2014

Click here to read an interview about Lincoln Memorial that I did with William Hageman at the Chicago Tribune, whose skills on the ol' typewriter helped hide my utter lack of over-the-phone eloquence. Thanks, Bill!

One of the watercolors in How to Hang a Picture that I’m most proud of is based on the home of John and Linda Meyers, AKA the design studio Wary Meyers.

Wary Meyers have recently started producing gorgeous candles and also sell lots of top notch vintage deign ephemera in their shop, which you should check out…
