| | |  Mary GrandPre talks working on the now-finished HP series
Mary GrandPre, the artist for the Harry Potter novels, is a Minnesota native. Therefore, it was natural for the home state to feature her in an interview with the Minnesota Public Radio!
In the interview, the massive sellings of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows are discussed, along with how GrandPre feels now that the series is over.
You can listen to the interview here.

I think she is the best artist to create the Harry Potter covers... I'm glad she did enjoy it

I liked her illustrations for all the books, but DH's definitely took the cake. They were absolutely perfect! It must be neat to be able to say that she was part of the series, and was responsible for bringing parts of them to visual form for us before the movies. She did it well!
Thanks for the interview! | |

I'm missing her artwork in my copy. I wanted to read the absolute original version, so I got Bloomsbury's.
She's an amazing artist.
The interview is just great.

Her art, especially the chapter art, is part of what makes me unable to put the book down. I look at the top of the chapter and see this little hint of what is to come and I just HAVE to know what it means... and then the rest is finishing the book in only one day

they're gonna try and tell me this wasn't, that none of this happened,

We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. | |
