Authors Pictures needed to sell books

I don't know if this link will work, but I am hoping that you will be able to follow it and listen to this story. NPR did a story about the need for authors pictures to present the author of a book in an attractive light in order to sell more books. So much for content.

  1. Yeah, this reminds me of one of the videos where a designer saw the productin of the paper from start to finish and content was second. The new design layout did sell the papers. There is a new place in media for art/design majors!
