Work Bill's personal work

 

Bill Kerr has an undergraduate degree in studio art and anthropology from the University of Virginia. He earned his Masters in Design at the Institute of Design at the Illinois Institute of Technology where he was a Motorola Fellow for two years.

He brings a diverse background to his teaching. His studies in Paris, France whet his appetite for world travel. He spent two years working for the Kenyan government chairing the mathematics department of a rural high school. Later he moved to northern Japan where he taught English and helped develop a junior high school text and teaching materials for the Japanese government.

His first full-time job as a Graphic Designer was as a VISTA Volunteer (the "domestic Peace Corps") in Knoxville, Tennessee with the East Tennessee Community Design Center.

In addition to his passion for Graphic Design, Bill is a textile artist and co-owner of FunQuilts.
