“Since 1963, the RAND Corporation has published an annual calendar that features portraits of notable individuals. I was honored to be commissioned to illustrate its 2023 calendar. I was provided fifteen quotations by historical figures that included Ruth Bader Ginsberg, Jane Goodall, Mary McLeod Bethune and I.M. Pei, among others. My task was to create portrait illustrations of the individuals that reflected the spirit of their quote and highlighted their individual achievements. Twelve were selected from the fifteen illustrations to be printed in the calendar.”
