Mike Corrao – Designer

I'm an adept book and cover designer with experience working on a wide range of titles from indie darlings to solo endeavours.

Overview

I'm an experienced cover designer, book designer and typesetter based in Minneapolis. I've worked with numerous presses such as Fonograf Editions, 11:11 Press, Milkweed Editions, and Apocalypse Party on the works of incredible authors such as John Ashbery, Audre Lorde, B.R. Yeager, and Vi Khi Nao. I'm interested in innovative and challenging projects, but am more than happy to create professional and beautiful editions of any literary or artistic work.
