"Shea as in stadium, Bon as in Jovi."

Terrific artist and FoPL Austin Kleon finally clarifies (for me, anyway) the proper pronunciation of Michael Chabon's last name. The source is Chabon himself, who delivers quite the NY/NJ-centric mnemonic:

"Shea as in stadium, Bon as in Jovi."

You'd think, given the striking Jay Ryan-designed poster print of the cover of The Final Solution that hangs in our front hallway, that I already would have known how to pronounce his name, but no. As an aside, Austin loves the book design of Maps and Legends, too. Guess I'm in good company.
