This and That
Heard from Keith Conlon '02, who sends a link to his new website:
www.keithconlon.com He was "recently named Art Director of American Legacy magazine, Keith now heads the publication’s entire art department and is responsible for generating creative concepts for the cover as well as fostering a cohesive relationship between design and copy to truly weave a compelling story."
Ran into Brendon Boyle '06, Justin Hirsch '07 (who is moving out to Colorado) and Maggie Horne '06 (moving to Chicago) at the Tang Opening for Molecules that Matter.
And news from John Moore who just returned from the Istanbul Biannual.
To see his two works visit the site: www.istanbulmuseum.org/kuf
