CHI #139: Cover Design Credit
Artwork by PAUL D'AMATO
Paul D'Amato, featured in this week's Flavorpill, was born in Boston where he attended Boston Latin School at the height of racial unrest, the civil rights movement, and bussing. He moved to Oregon to attend Reed College and claims to have learned as much from traveling cross-country four times a year — often by hitch-hiking and hopping freight trains — as he did in class. D'Amato received an MFA from Yale University and currently teaches at Columbia College, Chicago. He has been awarded numerous grants and fellowships including a Guggenheim Fellowship, a Pollock-Krasner Grant, and a Rockefeller Foundation Grant to study in Bellagio, Italy. His book Barrio, Photographs from Chicago's Pilsen and Little Village was published by University of Chicago Press in 2006.
