I designed both hard cover jackets and paperback book covers in the Adult Trade art department at PenguinUSA. I designed covers for the Viking, Dutton, Penguin and Plume lists.

I often negotiated image fees and publication rights with either stock image houses, or directly with illustrators, artists, and photographers.
