Whitney Dail was born in Alexandria, VA to a Naval aviator and an artist-entrepreneur, and was raised in Annapolis, MD. For five years, Whitney worked as a graphic designer in the comic book industry but returned to school in 2009 to pursue a better-suited Master's degree in Arts Administration. She is currently in the process of writing and researching her thesis on expanding art, science, and technology interactions in U.S. cultural institutions.

If I’ve learned one thing this entire quarter, it’s how to ask for money. The class Raising Funds for Arts Organizations has primed me for a position in fundraising. But how many different ways can you ask for funding? I’m in the beginning stages of writing a grant to the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts. I wish cover letters were like ad copy because all I want to say is, “Give me money.” With an explanation, of course. What would Andy do?
