From a traumatic haircut to a slew of nice (and never so nice) roles as an artwork director— properly, in every single place— Steve Heller shared private tales from his lengthy, illustrious inventive profession at yesterday’s inaugural assembly of the PRINT Ebook Membership. Debbie Millman helmed the dialogue for readers around the globe.
Heller’s new ebook, Rising Up Underground, is not any strange memoir. It’s a coming-of-age story about his colourful youth, surrounded and impressed by the ’60s and ’70s creatives who had been driving the waves of beatnik, hippie, and punk counterculture.
Heller vulnerably, humorously mirrored on memorable moments from his profession, starting with stints at The New York Free Press, The New York Overview of Intercourse, and The New York Occasions Op-Ed web page, the place he was the youngest artwork director within the publication’s historical past.
