The fabulous artist Michael Roberts
Let me fan out for a minute here on the incredible Michael Roberts. His children's books are quirky, fun, witty, colorful and graphic. He makes fashion fun for the kindergarten set and his wacky women are cool and contemporary. I love his sensibility. My daughter and I read his books for hours.
Michael Roberts is an Englishman and is a living legend of international fashion. A true talent in several mediums; he is an editor, photographer, illustrator and fashion stylist. Remember the Madonna cover for Vanity Fair a few months ago. Well Mr. Roberts concepted the cover and designed the globe for her to pose with.
Michael Roberts joined Vanity Fair as fashion and style director in 2006. Prior to joining the magazine Roberts served as fashion director at The New Yorker, a post he held for nine years. Throughout his illustrious career, Roberts has held various titles, among them fashion editor of The Sunday Times, style director and art director of Tatler, design director of British Vogue, and Paris editor of Vanity Fair. Roberts has contributed his photographs and illustrations to numerous publications, among them Vanity Fair; L'Uomo Vogue, British, Italian, French, American, Chinese, Brazilian, and Japanese Vogue; The Sunday Times; and The Independent on Sunday; and he has published four books of illustrations: The Jungle ABC (Callaway, 1998), Mumbo Jumbo (Callaway, 2000), Snowman in Paradise (Chronicle, 2004), and The Snippy World of New Yorker Fashion Artist Michael Roberts (L7/Steidl, 2005)
