St. Lawrence Centre — Bluma Appel Theatre
Join Debra as she outlines how she’s spent her career transforming projects for audiences others might overlook: from a magazine for women over 40 (gasp!) to a special Cancer Issue for The New York Times to a newspaper section made just for kids. With a deep respect for content and a sharp eye for storytelling, Debra shows how design can bring depth, dignity and playfulness to even the toughest briefs. She’ll walk us through her past work before diving into her current role at The New York Times for Kids—a publication that proves great design doesn’t have an age limit. This is a session about seeing potential where others don’t—and using design to elevate every story.
