I am attaching some very general questions—I'm flexible on these, just need some information. I will also need images of projects—concept to final would be great, or at least just the final—with explanations of how it came to be. If included in the magazine, I will of course send you complimentary copies. Thanks in advance. Please let me know as soon as possible if you or a designer(s) would like to be included in the feature. If so, I will need responses and images by early next week. Our questions. 1. How or why did you get into icon design? What do love about it? What can be trying or difficult in a project such as this? 2. Please describe your education and professional history. 3. How would you describe icon design or gui? 4. What clients or projects have you worked on involving info graphics? 5. Are there any successes and/or failures in your design work that particularly stick out for you? 6. Are there other designers in this field you look up to, or appreciate the work of? 7. What are you currently working on? 8. Can you send images of projects you've done? If you have images of the first rounds and the final project, that would be especially helpful. If so, please send information about how the project changed, grew, or advanced toward the final outcome. 9. Is there any other information you can think of that would be helpful to this story?

Hi,
I am writing an article for Dynamic Graphics magazine (www.dynamicgraphics.com) on icon design and wanted to contact you to see if there is a designer in particular I can interview for this?
