Today on the Tales of a Red Clay Rambler Podcast I have an interview with Rosti Eismont. For decades he was an art director and graphic designer for major magazines, including over thirty years at Studio Potter. Parallel to his career in print he worked as a potter and painter from his studio in Richmond, New Hampshire. In our interview we talk about his childhood as a refugee, his approach to design, and the emotional impact of selling a lifetime collection of art. To see examples of his work visit www.eismont.com.
