For over 35 years, R’ Eli Kroen has been a vital part of the work of ArtScroll and the Mesorah Heritage Foundation, designing thousands of covers of books and sefarim that grace homes across the globe. Art and design are not just an occupation for R’ Eli, but a passion. As R’ Eli says, “Anyone who says, ‘Don’t judge a book by its cover,’ has never tried to sell one.”
In this Inside ArtScroll interview, R’ Eli takes us down memory lane, reminiscing about when he first began working for ArtScroll, while highlighting some special projects that he’s worked on along the way.
