In this episode, we set up Chelsey Hill, a chorus manager and New York City-based illustrator. Chelsey’s work is inspired by eccentric New Yorkers, legendary musicians, and dynamite performers. Her work has been featured as part of the LinkNYC Urban Haiku program and the Women Conductor’s Series, and her clients include the Met Opera Chorus, Broadway Roulette, and more.
Chelsea recently read and loved Fun Home by Alison Bechdel and Big Magic by Elizabeth Gilbert. She’s a total fan of sweater weather and has more than 300 awesome coats. Her dream vacation would be to Scotland, and she loved Somebody Somewhere on HBO.
