This roundtable, by Dr. Charles Reeve (FoLAS/SIS and FoA), will highlight three artists’ autobiographies, in terms of how these artists understand writing as a craft, and the importance of developing an authentic artist voice. Dr. Reeve will discuss how autobiographical writings can be used in our teaching practice to model the linkage between art and writing for students across the disciplines in art and design education. The test site for the "Artists as Writers" index is now online. Take a tour here: http://ocad.libguides.com/artistsaswriters.
