NAN BOOKLESS
A native of the Berkshires, Nan began her graphics career as a freelance designer and illustrator focusing on design for print. Her subsequent employment at Quality Printing in Pittsfield, Massachusetts, first as a staff artist and then as Art Director, solidified her move into the graphics industry. After a number of years at Quality she revitalized her freelance business and was also recruited into the position of Art Director at The Women's Times, a monthly publication for women in western Massachusetts, handling the design and layout of the newspaper and its special supplements. Nan was interviewed in the October 2000 issue of The Crafts Report in an article titled "21 Tips for Creating Effective Advertising."

In 2003 Nan was part of a team at The Women's Times that won the prestigious American Cancer Society Sword of Hope Award (in the magazine/periodical division) for their annual Guide to Breast Cancer Resources. A published illustrator, Nan is also a small works collage artist and has shown in local and New York City galleries.

LIZ DeMARCO
With an educational background in graphic design, photography and web design, Liz began her career as the sole in-house designer for Safety 1st, a manufacturer of children's products then located in Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts. During her tenure there she designed numerous new product sell sheets, line art, point of purchase displays and new product packaging among other projects. Wishing to expand her creative opportunities, Liz joined the entrepreneurial world launching "Waterloo Design" which specialized in corporate identity systems, ad design, sales and marketing materials and web design. A partial list of Liz's Boston-based clients includes Safety 1st, Harvard Eating Disorders Center, Lifeline Systems and Commonwealth Films.

Liz adopted the Berkshires as her home in 2000, expanding Waterloo's client list to include a solid base of regional businesses. In addition to her work in graphic design, Liz has also studied at Johnson & Wales University and is a trained pastry chef.
