Bookfest bellwether icon, a checkmark over an open book
A portrait of Bill Hulseman, a middle-aged man with short gray hair, a neatly trimmed beard, and black-framed glasses. He is wearing a black coat over a dark sweater, complemented by a colorful striped scarf. His hands are casually tucked into his jean pockets as he stands confidently in front of a large stone sculpture of a troll under a bridge. The outdoor setting features earthy tones, stone steps, and trees in the background, creating a moody yet artistic atmosphere. His expression is calm and introspective, reflecting a sense of depth and creativity.
