Former students

Over the years I have had many amazing students who have taught me as much or more than I have taught them. Some have have gone on to start art collectives, others to raise children, practice law, trot the globe taking photographs, pursue doctorates, run start-up enterprises, or shape cities as architects or planners.

Below is a list of what some of my students have been up to since graduating. If you are a former student of mine, please drop me a line to let me know what you are doing. Help me keep this list updated! Email -- joseph at newschool dot edu.
