Editor’s Note
Toward the end of last year, Randy Astle emailed me and suggested we do a special themed issue focusing on Mormon artists in New York. It wasn’t hard to see that this was a good idea — while we love Utah artists, one of the goals of the magazine has been to show how much is happening outside of Utah, where artistic activities aren’t quite as well-known.
And, several months later, here we are with a gem of an issue. Special thanks to Randy for all of his work on this. We couldn’t have done it without him. Thanks also to everyone else who helped make this one of our best issues ever. Enjoy.
One more thing: In preparation for our international artists issue in October, we’re collecting suggestions for people to interview. If you’re a Latter-day Saint artist, writer, musician, filmmaker, or any other type of artist who lives outside the United States, or if you know someone who is, please let us know. Thanks! ■

Excellent. Thanks, Th. :)
Ben, you should get in touch with Glen Nelson, who would be full of ideas. I know he’s working with an artist in Australia to collect info on LDS composers. Let me know if you’d like me to put you in touch (though Randy can do the same).
Thanks for the recommendation, Nathan. :)
