ABOUT CHUCK FISHER:
Soon after graduating with the BFA in Advertising Art from the University of Kansas, we moved to New York City to pursue the career in the beautiful arts. First we tried the acting biz. we had countless walk-on tools upon the soap show All My ChildrenStardust Memories, though we was the victim of the self-evident "lost upon the cutting room floor". Time to re-evaluate my "acting career", as well as what we suspicion would be my "big break" in the movies, we was chosen by Woody Allen for the speaking partial in one of his movies.
Fortunately, friends of cave operative in the ra! rified u niverse of high-end interior design, encouraged me to take upon musical painting projects. we was soon consecrated to pattern as well as paint murals in the little of the excellent residences in the world. One of the initial things we learned operative with America's top decorators, (Sister Parish as well as Albert Hadley in particular) as well as their clients, was the importance of the library full of with pictures books for reference as well as inspiration.
I proposed building my collection of with pictures books, (numbering in the hundreds today) as well as as Thomas Jefferson said, "I cannot live but books".
There isn't the pattern plan of mine, from my china patterns for Lenox, to my wallpaper as well as fabric collections during Brunschwig as well as Fils as well as Schumacher which hasn't proposed with me seeking during books.
Today, much of my beautiful appetite is focused upon creating singular pop-up books filled with my illustrations, photographs, chronological contribution as well as information. My initial dual pop-up books dealt with American architecture, though my brand brand new book, CHRISTMAS IN NEW YORK is somewhat of the departure as well as the harbinger of brand brand new projects to come.
Each widespread in my pop-up book offers something brand brand new as well as exciting by with pictures 3-D pop-ups which have been deputy of prudent research as well as believe of historic art as well as design. In further to regulating my own collection of books for research as well as inspiration, we outlayed the great understanding of time during the library during the Cooper Hewitt Museum perusing their vast collection of with pictures pop-up books dating from the 13th century, as well as we have regularly had great luck anticipating singular images during the New York Public Library's Picture Collection.
The official websites of venues which we featured in the book were many helpful. www.metmuseum.org; www.nycballet.com; www.amnh.org; www.ndm.si.edu/; www.rockefellercenter.c! om; www. radiocity.com; as well as www.nybg.org

MY REVIEW:

Although everyone contingency know Charles Dicken's classical holiday tail, A CHRISTMAS CAROL, we am sincerely sure we haven't seen it in just this way. With Chuck Fisher's fabulous inventive talent, he has made this book/story, the all different experience. As we watch the extraordinary scenes literally reveal prior to your eyes, we can assistance though wonder during the kind of talented mind which can consider in 3D! As any loving scene comes to life, we will relive the joy of Yuletide by brand brand new eyes. we venerate Fisher's work as well as have proposed pciking up all his book like this to pass upon to my grandson when he is old enough to suffer but tearing it up. This is the present which keeps upon giving as well as upon today, the joyous Yuletide day, we hope we all get the possibility to demeanour during as well as own one of Chuck's books soon...especially A CHRISTMAS CAROL. As Tiny Tim tells us so convincingly in the story, "God Bless us every one!

From Bingo as well as Ms. M, "May your days be happy as well as bright! And might all your Christmases be white"...and regularly filled with great books to read!
