The Art Order - Cover Art Challenge for F(r)iction #2 Judges

Lauren Panepinto

I�m the Creative Director for Orbit Books and Yen Press. I was in charge of Trade Paperback design at The Doubleday Publishing Group, and before that I designed covers for St. Martin�s Press and Picador Books. I�ve been designing book covers for 7+ years, but I�ve been a geek forever. I cut my teeth working at comic book stores in NYC (Jim Hanley�s Universe) and Boston (Comicopia) through high school and college, I�m a connoisseur of sci-fi and fantasy movies (Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, Dune, Matrix, and any bad vampire movie are tops), books (I can name names for paragraphs here, but let�s just say I�ve read all the Dune books and leave it at that), and comic books (Transmetropolitan, Sandman, Hellboy, X-Men, Watchmen, and many more.) I�m very excited to finally get a chance to combine my love of this genre and my love of design.
