My Art Director is on vacation and I had to get some work of his mac to send to the printer. While on his mac I noticed a portfolio/resume folder and it sparked my curiosity. My curiosity got the best of me and I went threw his stuff. I know it's not the most ethical thing but get this....some of the shit in his portfolio was mine and he had nothing to do with it creatively or directionally. What should I do, confront him or let him die a slow death?

just tell him that 'someone' saw him putting it together and pointed out to you that it looked like your work? give it a few days though otherwise it will be too obvious :)

He had folders of all the company's he's applying for so I'm thinking of sending him a form letter with a fake email address saying "we were made aware that not all of this work is yours" or something.

tough call... he may be a stealer, but you're a snooper. Maybe a little psychological warfare is in order?
eg: I know you know I know.

but then if you're not looking for a job does it matter?

Print it out and leave it on his desk with your work on top. If his conscience does not get to him then confront him. Computers at work belong to the office and you did not do anything wrong coming across it while looking for something else.

amen. I think stealing is less ethical than snooping.

ooooooooo, since you know where he's applying, send an email to each and every contact he has citing "disturbing information regarding his portfolio artwork and its origins"

Can you ask to see his portfolio? Say you real interested in seeing what work he presents to people....
"uh....I don't have one"
Urge him to make one, and become very involved in helping him, to the point you become odd.

this is the same guy that busted me for leaving @ 4:30 on a Friday not acknowledging that I stay way past closing most nights. I hate him now he's stealing my work. I am pissed!
