One World. One Idyllwild. The Series

This episode features Dr. Lorne Buchman, President Emeritus of ArtCenter College of Design, an international leader in art and design education. When Buchman was appointed president in 2009, he quickly engaged his community to define what a great art and design college should be in the early 21st century. His talent for gaining consensus among diverse constituencies proved key to ArtCenter’s mission-driven growth. During Buchman’s presidency, the College increased the undergraduate and graduate degree programs and realized record enrollments. His passion and deep commitment to excellence in education has generated an unprecedented response from alumni and foundations. As part of the president’s advocacy for the value of art and design to audiences beyond academia, Buchman hosts the podcast, Change Lab: Conversations on Transformation and Creativity. Dr. Buchman has served as president of both Saybrook University and California College of the Arts . A trained theater director and scholar, Buchman is the author of Still in Movement: Shakespeare on Screen. His book, Make to Know: From Spaces of Uncertainty to Creative Discovery, was published by Thames & Hudson in August of last year.
