Creative Lives: An Anthology by Ed Murphy

I received this book at the MACCA conference in December from the keynote speaker, Ed Murphy.

It is a collection of stories from a variety of people who work in a creative industry and how they got into their jobs. It is quite a collection of different people from artists and dancers to recording industry and workforce development.

It was interesting to read how creativity manifested itself in their lives and how it looked so different to each of them. Some were encouraged early on in their lives, others not. But their often windy roads to their career paths was fascinating.

If you have a client who is thinking about getting into the creative industry and seems hesitant. I would recommend they read this book.
