Message From The Director

Dear ABH Community,

As I prepare myself, and ABH, for the transition from my current role as Executive Director to that of Advisory Board member, I think back on this Prologue year with fondness. I’ll continue to wholeheartedly cheer the organization on in this capacity, and I’ll be available to offer guidance and support whenever it is needed after this shift.

I’m grateful for the opportunity to have shepherded ABH during such a transitional and transformational year. It’s been an honor to work beside Audrey and the rest of the ABH Board, and my deepest hope is that the work we’ve done together this past year will continue to catalyze the organization forward. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed creating a little team with our Program Assistant Killian Fowler, our Social Media Intern Annelise Adel, and our videographer Ilan Elenbogen. Thank you to all the teaching artists I've learned from, and to all of you who have shown up for ABH at our myriad pop-ups, panels, and dinners.

Above all, thank you for your continued commitment to Artists Book House and for being such a wonderful community to build with. I look forward to our continued collaborations, all around.

For the love of books, always,

Deborah Siegel-Acevedo, ABH Inaugural Executive Director
