Meeting Hillman Curtis
I met Hillman Curtis today. Hillman is one of my personal heroes. He’s a fantastic designer and artist, and he has always been a huge inspiration for me.
A Peachpit editor introduced me to him in the exhibition hall at FlashForward this morning. We talked for a few minutes, he signed my copy of his book, asked about my new book (Designing the Obvious), and said he’d love to read it. I told him I’d be sure to get a copy to him.
Great guy. Very personable, extremely insightful and intelligent, very well-spoken.
Did I mention he’s one of my heroes?

I met Hillman today too - also one of my heroes. He’s totally humble and just a brilliant intuitive thinker. Enjoyed your presentation too! Thanks

He is indeed.
Thanks for the kind words. The book should be out in mid-October if you want to learn more than what the presentation covered. Thanks again.
