<p>"While most Princeton students looking for school-year employment compete for desk jobs at Firestone Library, Sean Rubin 09 has another job lined up drawing mice. Rubin, who has already worked extensively with the Redwall book series, has been selected as the interior illustrator for the latest installment of Brian Jacques award-winning books, which have sold more than 20 million copies worldwide in 28 languages.</p>
<p>Juggling the demands of a Princeton senior with a career as a professional illustrator has been problematic for Rubin at times. Its very tricky telling your thesis adviser, I cant turn that in on deadline. I have to draw mice, he said. I had a very understanding adviser.</p>
<p>Yet Princeton has still found its way into his illustrations in addition to his Princeton models. There should also be a bunch of Princeton-style architecture, he said. I sort of went out of my way to ensure that happens.</p>
