Way back in 2005, she designed the cover of a book sitting on many of our kitchen bookshelves – Stephanie Alexander’s The Cook’s Companion.
A multi-award winner, she designed the cover of the 2016 Stella Award winner The Museum of Modern Art, which won both the Literary Fiction and Cover of the Year categories at the 2017 Australian Book Design Awards.
Sandy was a founding Australian Book Designers Association (ABDA) committee member, has been a guest speaker at writers’ festivals and an occasional guest lecturer on book design at secondary and tertiary level.
