Catherine Gilmore-Barnes called with a great assignment for the New York Times Science section. The project called for a cover and 5 spots about the Climate Change movement which is starting to gain critical mass. As with any movement there are growing pains and the feature discussed the many movements within a movement. Naturally this assignment happened during the same week as board duties for ICON9 in Austin so I would work on the project each day at 6:00am before the conference day. Some days I snuck into Jason Holley’s backstage area to work where Jason’s team furiously created an amazing stage design. The energy was exhilarating. Catherine and the editors were happy and conference was a huge success. It’s a week I’ll never forget.
