The Rise by Sarah Lewis

An inspiring book about what it means to be human as we struggle for mastery in our various spheres.

‘Sarah Lewis has assembled a rich trove of reflections not just on creativity but on the too-often ignored role that failure and surrender play in almost any ambitious undertakingThat counter-intuitive point of attack makes ‘The Rise’ a welcome departure from standard accounts of artistry and innovation’ Lewis Hyde, author of ‘The Gift’

Sarah received her B.A. from Harvard University, an M.Phil from Oxford University, and will receive her PhD from Yale University in 2012.

Selected for Oprah’s 2010 “Power List,” and included as a member of President Obama’s Arts Policy Committee, her writing has been published widely. She has taught at Yale University, School of Art in the MFA program and has been an active curator, holding positions at both the Tate Modern and the Museum of Modern Art. She was also selected to be the Co-Curator of the 2010 SITE Santa Fe Biennial.

She sits on the boards of the Harvard University Alumni Association, The CUNY Graduate Center, The Andy Warhol for the Visual Arts, The Brearley School, and the Madison Square Park Art Program.
