Steven Compton

Steve Compton is an illustrator and the exhibitions director for the Society of Illustrators. (I know it's only two things, but those two things are a lot!) He promotes illustration by day and makes his own work by night. He is like Batman, except much less exciting. Steven is also a Co-Director of ICON The Illustration Conference, having served since 2023. Prior to accepting this role, he was on the board of directors for ICON12 (2024) in Minneapolis. He lives in Jersey City with his wife and their son, where he enjoys cooking, watching bad horror movies, and making art.
