Bowie, Maryland, native Andrea Pippins studied at Temple University’s Tyler School of Art, where she earned a B.F.A. in graphic design. She began her career as a graphic designer working for Hallmark Cards before transitioning to illustration work for cable television networks.

After earning her M.F.A. at Temple, Pippins taught graphic design at both Stevenson University and the Maryland Institute College of Art. Since then, she has been working as an illustrator on projects for clients, including Apple, Instagram, Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts, National Museum of African American History and Culture, Sephora, and USPS.
