Terrific video interview with Michael Bierut; topics range from Kubrick’s favorite font to the various cover designs of Salinger’s The Catcher in the Rye. There is a link below the video to a companion article from The Atlantic

So I am not a designer by training, and this is where my ignorance and outsider status come into embarrasing play… even though I’d seen interviews with him before, until reading the article I didn’t realize Beruit is one of the editors over at Design Observer, which is a source of all sorts of goodness. He talks about his book (which nobody bought me for Christmas) here.
