Ep. 48 - Accountability, community and humanity w/ David Mayes of Typecraft

We’re back for another season of Graphic Support Group. Kicking off for Season 6 is another episode of our beloved “Behind the Screen” series. If you haven’t heard it our first installment was with Hasan Askari. This time we got to speak with LA print legend David Mayes. He's long been a part of the LA design community, going beyond his role as a printer to be a steward of design in the city. He shared the development of his career and the many relationships he’s fostered through his work as a printer. David was honest and candid about the weight of being responsible for executing so many people’s work. Throughout the years he’s created lasting bonds and helped bridge the gap between printers and designers. His involvement in AIGA LA has added depth and meaning to his business and the community that’s grown around him. We’re so grateful for his story and helped us better understand the humanity behind the service. Be kind to your printers!—This year we’ll be bringing some new voices to the podcast to join as co-hosts. Thank you all for supporting this project and we hope to grow the community of creativity and care. Get full access to Graphic Support Group Podcast at graphicsupportgroup.substack.com/subscribe
