SHORT BIOGRAPHY Stephen Shooster, also known as Shoosty®, was born 1958 in Chester, Pennsylvania. He received a Bachelor of Fine Arts with a minor in Architecture in 1986 at e University of Florida, and enjoyed a successful corporate career by day and a prolic painting career by night. He is also the author of e Horse Adjutant , a story about a survivor of the Nazi Holocaust, and is featured in Mar- quis’ Who’s Who in American Art. FROM LOCAL BEGINNINGS TO GLOBAL RESPONSE Shooster’s corporate career took him from working with his family in an answering service business, using old-fashioned wooden switchboards, to navigating the company successfully through the convergence of com- puters and telephony, patenting software along the way, which is the de facto method used by all call centers today. His company, Global Response, serves some of the nest brands in the world, including Toyota; Lane Bryant; the Metropolitan Museum of Art; MoMA, the Modern Museum of Art.
SHOOSTY® BY NIGHT, INVOKING THE SPIRITS Using the signature Shoosty®, his painting career spans over fty years and is recognizable by his trademark use of color and shape. Inuenced by travel, music, trib- al cultures and family, Shoosty’s work takes the viewer on a wild ride invoking the spirits of Picasso, Braque, Gauguin, Chagall, Matisse, Ad Reinhardt and even illus- trated manuscripts to create his paintings, which range from the sublime to the groovy. Shoosty’s sculpture and paintings are rare; they appear in a few public and private collections around the world. CONSTRUCTION FOR ETERNITY Combining his artistic ability with his zeal for technolo- gy and lifelong learning, Shoosty® is as comfortable with oil paints as he is with technology. His primary concern is using the arts to provide creative leadership.
