Scholar to Studio: Academic Turned Artist with Dr. Bridget R. Cooks

Tonight's guest Dr. Bridget R. Cooks is the most well-read person we've had on the show. With a Ph.D. in Art History, Visual and Cultural Studies, she is a published author, has written in dozens of exhibition catalogues and academic journals, and has curated numerous exhibitions around the country. But these are only a few of the credentials, stories, and accomplishments in her name: to list everything we talk about in this episode would be impossible. And presently, she's stepping across the aisle, picking up the brush and becoming a visual artist herself. We only dipped our toes in the pool and can't wait to have her back - tune in to one of our most articulate episodes yet
