Whilst in New York she designed book covers, posters, textiles, and worked as an art director. She moved to Britain in 1974, and explored various aspects of textiles while raising children. Her work has been exhibited in London, Dublin and New York. Roberta combines annual North American visits with continued exploration of the European scene, and commentates on transatlantic arts and crafts exchange. David Rose, an art historian and critic based in Dublin, has been involved in the arts in Ireland for some years, having run a gallery, arranged exhibitions, and written a regular column in The Cork Citizen about artists and craftworkers. Margaret MacNamidhe graduated from N.C.A.D. in 1987 and now teaches there as well as in D.L.C.A.D. She has exhibited widely and has also travelled extensively on scholarships. N.P.
