The Creativity Conversations podcast is back from its hiatus. The introduction to this episode was recorded in the spring of 2021.

Amos P. Kennedy Jr. and Randall K. Burkett sit down in the Rose Library at Emory University for a lively conversation about Kennedy and his work. Kennedy, who left a corporate job more than 20 years ago to pursue his artistic passions full-time, uses an old-fashioned letterpress printer to make colorful chipboard posters with social, political, racial, and inspirational messages. Kennedy also makes beautiful hand-made books. The Rose Library holds a collection of his work. The audio for this conversation comes from a video recording of the event in March 2016.

This conversation is introduced by host/Emory Arts employee Maggie Beker and artist, then Emory Student, and Conversations with Eggs: Virtual Arts Zine editor James Reich. Beker and Reich introduce the podcast and discuss how Reich approaches his own creativity. View Reich's own work: https://jameshastur.com/
