fle26210_fm.qxd 9/30/03 2:37 PM Page XXVI XXVI | PREFACE | Arts. Living in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Ilene has taught illustration and design, and her work is represented in many public and private collections. Her clients include The Wall Street Journal, Children’s Television Workshop, Simon & Schuster, and Scholastic, Inc. Contact Ilene Winn-Lederer at http://www.winnlederer.com Brian Zick is an old commercial hack who has for eons serviced a whole bunch of really really big bigtime clients (it would be gauche to drop names). His post avant-garde neo-derivative stylings display an amalgam of diverse creative influences (he rips off the best). Brian has yet to write an opera, but he always puts the toilet seat back down, and he never goes to bed without first brushing his teeth. Robert Zimmerman has spent the last 20 years developing a perpetual drawing machine, which is fabricated from nothing but recycled milk jugs, rubber bands, and plastic coat hangers. Once completed, the machine (called the Zimminator, and currently occupying a 40,000-square-foot airplane hangar) is planned to replace him completely. He intends to use his free time to fulfill his lifelong dream of sorting, identifying, and cataloging his collection of petrified ants and writing catchy burlesque show tunes on his guitar. A college dropout and father of two, Robert lives in the mountains of North Carolina. He is known to spend long hours talking to his pet parakeet, Buzz, who understands everything that Robert says and agrees completely with all of his lousy opinions. Robin Zimmerman lives and works in Xenia, Ohio. She learned to Batik in high school and continued to explore the medium at Ohio University. Robin has a place in the north woods of Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. There she spends about a month in the summer. “Not long enough,” she reflects. Many of her images come from the north woods: the birch and balsam trees, the native birds and flowers there. She travels as often as she can, and is creatively inspired by those journeys. For as long as she can remember, Robin Zingone has had design running through her veins. A compulsive designer, Robin’s many trips abroad have inspired every aspect and application of her work. After completing her education (at Parsons both in New York and Paris), Robin traveled extensively overseas. She continues to do so when she is not hard at work here in America for a broad range of clients, including product illustration for Barbie (Mattel), shampoo bottles for Conair, cookbooks for Workman Publishing, and beer glasses for Anheuser Busch. Robin has applied her love of beauty and design to other projects as well. She designed (and built) her own exquisitely lush home, and developed a line of pottery, decorated in her own unique style. Robin lives in Connecticut with her husband, Peter, and an extended family that includes three dogs and two cats.
