Beverley West

Let’s Always Miss Our Flight is Beverley West’s book of poetry that she commissioned me to design after designing her memoir. Finding My Way Back to 1950s Paris is an engaging memoir about a young American woman going to Paris in the 50s and doing all the things young people did then. She lived in a garret, studied French, wrote, listened to jazz, and fell in love. After raising a family back in the US she returned to Paris in her 70s and wrote this book. Beverley had a handful of photos that I considered for the cover, eventually settling on two that we photoshopped together. The memoir was a finalist for the 2015 Nancy Pearl Book Award of the Pacific Northwest Writers Association.
