Success Secrets of the Graphic Design Superstars
I just got a birth announcement that I am eager to share. Will Sherwood, principle of The Sherwood Group, has kicked off a blog in the last few days titled “Success Secrets of the Graphic Design Superstars.” If that doesn't get your attention (got mine), the list of designers he interviews will. Interviews with Petrula Vrontikis, Luba Lukova, and Andrea Cutler are posted now and upcoming are interviews with others such as Milton Glaser, Ivan Chermayeff, Bill Cahan, Noreen Morioka, Dave Mason, Rick Valicenti, Mike Salisbury, Woody Pirtle, Stan Richards, Chip Kidd, Kim Baer, Mirko Ilic, Jennifer Morla, Margo Chase, Steve Wedeen, and so on.
What is so enticing to me is that the questions are being posed by a designer who knows what he's talking about. We're going to get a different type of information than we would from someone who is simply an interested interviewer. Don't miss it.

Comments
Hey Chuck,
Thank you for passing along my new blog site. As you may know, the site is part of the project for my masters thesis. Hopefully, depending on whether a publisher comes forward, it will also be a "coffee table" book.
I chose this as my thesis because, over the years, so many people who are new to our industry have asked me how to get started and build a successful career. What better way to get the word out would be to write a book with the thoughts of top folks in the field, like those already posted.
Again, Thank you!
Best regards,
Will Sherwood
