 Description: Always a creative at heart, artist Beverly Blumberg Erdreich found direction and focus through her art history education at Newcomb College. Read her Q&A with StyleBlueprint on abstract painting, how she instilled an appreciation for art in her children, and her love of travel.

 Favorite Newcomb Memory:  “My four years at Newcomb were as close to idyllic as any college experience could be. The offerings of academics, campus life, social life and the opportunity to make close and lasting friends was a perfect mix. To enjoy all of this in the beauty of New Orleans made it all even more irreplaceable.”
