Digital Collections Welcomes Sarah McVicar

Sarah McVicar, the new Visual Resources Digitization Assistant in Digital Collections, has been working for Northwestern University for two years. Formerly, she was the Program Assistant in Physics & Astronomy, and more recently, the Department Assistant in Art History. She graduated from Northern Michigan University in 2004 with a BFA from the Department of Art & Design and a concentration in Electronic Imaging. She has continued to produce art in the form of digital photography and web design, and has recently begun to work in more traditional mediums like fiber and ink.

In November she celebrated her birthday with a party that included both a magician and a fire staff twirler. This year Sarah is going to attempt to commute with her bicycle for the first time during winter. Her pastimes include creating art, travel, camping, hiking, biking, cooking and caring for her dog and two cats. She can be reached at x7-1951 or s-mcvicar@northwestern.edu.
