Julia Rothman’s Educator Portraits

Thank You, Teachers!
Julia Rothman isn’t just the creator of the beloved Anatomy books; she’s one-half of the team behind Scratch, a biweekly illustrated column for the New York Times’s Business section. Together, Rothman and writer Shaina Feinberg explore often-overlooked parts of the economy.

With the end of this school year on the horizon, Scratch recently focused on the words and experiences of 14 educators working in quarantine and the realities of remote learning. 

See the full column and Julia Rothman’s teacher portraits here.
