Abstract
Recent infrared observations, particularly from the Spitzer Space Telescope, of white dwarfs, cataclysmic variables and other interacting compact binaries, have revealed the presence of dust in many systems. I review the discovery, properties, and implications of dust around white dwarfs and cataclysmic variables.
