Emily Harris

Giuseppe Castellano talks to Emily Harris, Associate Art Director at Lerner Publishing Group, about how illustrators can know what art directors want (spoiler: they can’t); how she finds illustrators for the myriad books she art directs; what myths need to stop spreading about being—and creating art as—a children’s book illustrator; and more.
