Re-issue: Drawing Inspiration w/ Maira Kalman

As we pass the two-year mark of the pandemic, we thought it would be good to bring back one of the guests we interviewed in our office before everything shut down. You may know her great illustrations that feature dogs, but it's her journey from a fear of dogs to a special connection that makes her work even more interesting.Maira Kalman is an Israeli-born American illustrator, writer, artist, and designer. She has written and illustrated eighteen children’s books and is a frequent contributor to The New Yorker, including creating several covers for the magazine that you may have seen before. After initially being afraid of dogs from a young age, Maira eventually had a change of heart and opened up her world to dogs. She realized how much dogs have to teach us, how they’re natural comedians, and how they make us better as people.For more information about the episode, guest, and featured social media or links: www.dogsavethepeople.com/episodes/reissue-maira-kalmanIf you liked this episode, then please support our Independent podcast production, go to www.buymeacoffee.com/dogpeople to buy us a (virtual) coffee as a one-time donation or recurring monthly membership.
