Description: 234 pages ; 21 cm
Rachel Friedman was a natural viola player from the age of eight, and thought she knew what her life as an artist would look like: she attended the prestigious Interlochen Center for the Arts camp and enrolled at one of the country's best conservatories. But three semesters into college, she found herself living a decidedly inartistic life. In search of answers, she decided to track down her former Interlochen campmates to find out how their own creative promise has translated into adult careers, relationships, and identities.
