Keeli McCarthy – Designer

Fantagraphics is well-represented on the New York Times Best Seller list as well as in Communication Arts and Print Magazine. As a senior designer with this independent publisher, I have art directed and designed book covers and interiors for comics, biographies, art anthologies, and historical reprints. Working closely with the print buyer and the artists, I incorporate finishes such as debossing, stamping, flocking, die cuts, and varnishes to create book objects that are of the highest quality in the field.

Klutz was first in the field of "all-in-one" books for kids. In addition to designing covers and interior layouts, I also created decorative illustrations, hand-lettering, and art directed photography. Many of these books have been on the New York Times Best Seller list, and a few have been winners of the Oppenheim Toy Portfolio and Parents’ Choice Awards.
