Crystal Wood
 |
Crystal Wood has worked as a professional
graphics artist since high school, which was not, she will readily
admit, yesterday. Over the years she has honed her skills by
working as a staff layout artist for a newspaper and an advertising
agency, as the principal graphics artist for a printing company,
and even as publications director for a large metropolitan church.
In 1994 she began Tattersall Publishing as an independent small
press, a book design outsource, and a general graphic arts provider.
In addition to books, Crystal designs and contracts for production
for everything from business cards to newsletters, annual reports,
catalogs, brochures, newsletters, and even T-shirts and other
advertising specialties. (And the occasional website, such as
this one.) Apart from the odd software seminar, Crystal has had no formal training in graphic arts. She earned bachelor's and master's degrees in technical theater and communications, always managing to work her natural ability for designing printwork into those fields. Crystal is also an editor and the author of three books published by Tattersall Publishing: Outing the Cat Lady: Embracing Your Feline Addiction With Style, Fool's Joust, and Cut Him Out in Little Stars. She has been married to George for almost 30 years. They have a daughter and three grandchildren, and an assortment of cats who provide cheap entertainment as well as inspiration for humorous books. |
