Samira Iravani is a New York native and Associate Art Director with the Macmillan Children's Publishing Group.

Prior to that she was an Associate Art Director at Clarion Books (an imprint of HarperCollins Publishers), and a member of the Penguin Young Readers design group.
Why Such Dainties? Once upon a time Samira was an Alice in Wonderland obsessed teenager. These two words were borrowed from the poem "Beautiful Soup" to claim her first creative space on the internet (sigh, livejournal) and have been her brand ever since.

Work With Me! If you are an artist and would like to send samples of your work, you can reach me at samira.iravani@macmillan.com—I'm friendly, I promise! :)
