Welcome back for another exciting episode of the Be A Design Cast! This week we are proud to bring you our interview with Jenn Visocky O’Grady, co-author of A Design’s Research Manual: Succeed in Design by Knowing Your Clients and What They Really Need. Which is an awesome book, no matter what you think of really long subtitles. In addition to the book, we spend a lot of time talking about the finer points of design education (Jenn is an Associate Professor of Graphic Design at Cleveland State), AIGA student chapters, and plenty more. I’ve known Jenn and her husband Ken (do not call them “Kennifer”) for a number of years now and not only are they both brilliantly talented designers, they are also two of the nicest people in the world. So big thanks again to Jenn for taking time for the show, and we hope you all enjoy it out there!

snort! -cough!- huh? … wha?

oh, sorry Pete. Jus’ dozed off for a second there —

dude thanks a lot

Wow, Jen looks so different! Last time I saw her she had spikey, blonde hair… and she was ~8 months pregnant.

Good to see Cleveland representing.

If I recall my Army training, an En Dash can also be used to express distance, as in “New York–London flights” or “Franco–Prussian War” or the strange specific instance of “Mason–Dixon Line”.

Am I wrong?
