Disabled in the Coronavirus Crisis: ‘I Will Not Apologize for My Needs’
Client: The New York Times; Disability Series
AD: Jim Datz

Even in a crisis, doctors should not abandon the principle of nondiscrimination.

For a piece in the NYT’s Disability Series about the ethical considerations that the medical profession needs to make during a time of crisis and equipment shortage, such as the coronavirus pandemic, and how this puts disabled people at a much higher risk of being left behind, or discriminated against, when in need of treatment.
Inside Two Sigma’s Billion-Dollar Private-Markets Gambit
Client: Institutional Investor
AD: Jeremy Leung

A famed quant shop opens its internal private-equity fund to outside investors for the first time.

An illustration for a piece about the international hedge fund TwoSigma expanding into private equity, specifically one that involves big data, machine-learning, and tech.
The Alluring Promise of "The Burnt Orange Heresy"
Client: The New Yorker
AD: Chris Curry

What appears to be consensual intimacy is an act of deliberate carnal deceit.

For Anthony Lane’s film review of The Burnt Orange Heresy in The New Yorker magazine. The film is about how the charismatic art critic James Figueras and his American lover travel to the lavish Lake Como estate of powerful art collector, Joseph Cassidy. Their host reveals he is the patron of Jerome Debney, the reclusive J.D. Salinger of the art world, and he has a simple request: for James to steal a Debney masterpiece from the artist's studio, whatever the cost.
‘Little Women’ Is a Lifestyle Brand. I Bought In.
Client: Fatherly
AD: Anne Meadows

The March girls model happy sisterhood, but providing space for those kinds of relationships is harder and harder.

An illustration for a sweet essay from a father of three girls– recalling what the book Little Women meant to them growing up, and reflecting on his attempt to raise young women with the same strong sense of selves balanced with the strength of their familial bonds. The three girls were raised somewhat isolated on a small island off the coast of Maine (living a life similar to how the Little Women’s March girls were left to their own devices and had to find ways to entertain themselves together).

Client: The New York Times
AD: Andrew Sondern

In addition to the tragic losses of life, health, and jobs, we are grieving the losses of weddings, sports, and the ability to buy eggs or get a haircut.
