"In The Death of the Artist, author William Deresiewicz profiles those struggling to make a living through the arts, from the 20-something college novelist with a multi-hyphenated job title to the midlife painter who must utilize social media to stay relevant. Deresiewicz shows what the birth of the “creative entrepreneur” signifies about our evolving society at large and what might be done to keep artists thriving, because we need them. Deresiewicz will be joined in conversation by Kate Bingaman-Burt, illustrator and professor of graphic design, and Lisa Congdon, illustrator and author of Find Your Artistic Voice." (Promo Copy)
