As Seen On TV

If you’re wondering where a degree in graphic design may lead you, here’s one answer. Last night on The Daily Show Jon Stewart lauded praise on Kristen Schaal’s new book, The Sexy Book of Sexy Sex. Like Stewart’s own book, America (The Book) — designed by Paula Scher — it is as funny for its writing as it is its design. The Sexy Book of Sexy Sex is the recent work of recent CCA grad Emily Craig (also a MINE™ alum). Craig was awarded the coveted Chronicle Books Fellowship earlier this year and in the course designed several books, including Schaal’s. Her Fellowship ended last month, so Chronicle Hired her.

    Thanks for the shout out Christopher!

    Making this book involved the rock hard and super sexy work of many people and I would be remiss (and verbally abused at work) if I did not credit Michael Morris as the head designer and art director for this book. Under his guidance and with his expertise, we designed a really dirty book with illustrations by Michael Kupperman (http://mkupperman2.wordpress.com/) and Lisa Hanawalt (www.lisahanawalt.com/).

    Michael Morris also graduated from CCA. But he won’t tell me when . . .
