Never Be Sane Hannah Hightman

Never Be Sane is a monograph focusing on young people who did something different with their youth, despite adolescence usually being the time when people begin to become what society wants them to be. This book profiles the antics and accomplishments of 18 people during their teens/youth (including Tavi Gevinson, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Aaron Swartz, Elizabeth Cochran Seaman, and Akiane Kramarik) in an effort to promote individuality in the face of conformity. It features brief excerpts on each person with accompanying visuals and ink sketches.
