Meet the Lead Designer of The Viking House Saga and A Portrait of Grief and Courage

The Teaching Press had 21 students working as interns and staff in Fall 2023. We’re featuring their work in small batches—the same  way we print books at the Press! 

Emily Heling was lead designer for two  Teaching Press titles in 2023: The Viking House Saga: A Journey into Experiential Archeology at UW-Green Bay, by Owen Christianson and Heidi Sherman (October 2023), and A Portrait of Grief and Courage: Hmong Oral Histories and Folktales, by Sandra Shackelford (December 2023). Her design work included researching Old Norse carvings and Hmong story cloths, boosting photo quality for color and black and white images, designing book covers and interiors, choosing fonts and colors, and meeting about  style options with three different authors.

 


Meet the Interns: Promotion, Production, and A Viking House Saga

The Teaching Press had 21 students working as interns and staff in Fall 2023. We’re featuring their work in small batches—the same  way we print books at the Press! 

This group of interns  focused on creating press publicity for our titles, including our Fall 2023 launch of The Viking House Saga: A Journey into Experiential Learning at UW-Green Bay, by Owen Christianson and Heidi Sherman. After a quick summer of editing and designing this book, Manager Matthew Everard and our team were still ready to launch in time for the Midwest Viking Festival in October.  They also worked on printing The Lower Fox River PCB Clean Up , creating publicity for our other titles, and copyediting A Portrait of Grief and Courage: Hmong Oral Histories and Folktales.
