We are honored to feature San Josean Anjelah Johnson, who has shared her experiences of the South Bay through her comic characters and observational comedy. For the backdrop of our interview and photo shoot, we worked with Winchester Mystery House, one of the local attractions and a historical site that really showcases the uniqueness of our culture. Another aspect of our area is the branding and graphic-design creatives working with clients whose ideas ripple through the world. A few great examples of this are Liquid Agency, Cosmic, and Kevin Tudball. You have seen their work but maybe not even realized it. For example, if you happen to like Four Barrel or Verve Coffee, then you have experienced some of Kevin’s work. I hope that as you meet the people in this issue, you are also inspired by their work and lives and find a new appreciation for our community—begin to sense the depth and breadth of the creative culture of the South Bay.
