This Very Very Special Abrams Book Designer

________________________________________________________________________________________________

In 1983, she knew
that this author, Ariana–
with the mile long 
Greek name—  
would become 
a modern 
Goddess.

None of her fellow designers,
or any other Abrams employees,
believed 
her.


Stassinopoulos

She told her colleagues that Ariana was easy 
to work with  "If you remember to laugh at her jokes."

Then along came a little rich boy and prophecy
was fulfilled. Ariana became a Huffington. 

Bejeweled and un-bewildered, the world
became her oyster.

What more does a modern Goddess need to do,
after legitimizing that puky sounding thing
called a Blog?

One more question: did the very, very special
Abrams Books designer know–in 1983–
that she was the future Mrs. CarPeo?
