This bit was my favourite: "The cover would not be related to what is inside the magazine. The cover would have a presence, a life of its own. It would inspire and illuminate, inform and educate, make you think, make you laugh, make you wonder—sometimes, all of these all at once." It made me want to read ahead and also go and pick up some issues for myself! As a writer, this glimpse into art and cover direction was super interesting.

I was first drawn towards The New Yorker because of their covers and illustration within pieces. So, getting an insight into the process and behind the scenes workings was delightful. Loved this!
