With decades of experience, Stacy Miller is my most trusted voice in professional development for artists. Her latest book, Career Management for Artists hits the market at a historical cultural moment and offers real strategies for artists to sustain their careers on their own terms. Building on the necessities such as an artist portfolio and teaching dossier, Miller puts the art market in proper focus and takes a singular approach to social media as an essential career building tool. I am excited to share this book with my students to reinforce what Miller so passionately believes: we need artists now more than ever.
