In our Ideas Matter segment we take time just about every week to check in with the state humanities councils in our 7-state region.
This week we check in with the New York Council for the Humanities to learn about the practice and process of editorial illustration.
Alexandra Zsigmond is the art director of the New York Times Sunday Review, and we're going to speak with her about how politics and history are represented in editorial art. In addition to her work at the Times, Alexandra is one of the New York Council for the Humanities’ new Public Scholars.
