From the OC Register:
Jenny Doh (’91) took a leave of absence from her job at Social Services to get involved
with her daughter’s elementary school, and though she had planned to return, that
didn’t happen. Instead, she wrote a letter to an arts-and-crafts magazine publisher
in South Orange County because she’d been an enthusiast of the hobby all her life,
she said. Now she owns her own arts-and crafts publishing company. Crescendoh, based
in Santa Ana. 1Q . How did this happen? A. I just plunged right into the world of
art and craft publishing. I started as an assistant editor and was promoted to editor-in-chief
and then director of publishing (at Stampington & Co.). At that point I wondered if
I could translate those skills and relationships in a way where I could do it from
home. We’re a book-packager, meaning that we produce and coordinate books for publication.
We coordinate the talent to make the art, get things photographed and write the content.
The other arm of Crescendoh is a live studio in the Santora Building in the Artists
Village of Santa Ana. We offer workshops on all sorts of things.
