Interview With Kate Bezar Creator of Dumbo Feather, Pass it on.


Following my short article of Dumbo Feather, Pass it on, that i’d found at the Design Market
Comes an excerpt from the interview with Kate Bezar via theDesignfiles.net

Well loved Dumbo Feather Library

Well-loved Dumbo feather library

I get the feeling Kate Bezar is a bit of a dynamo.

It’s not just the incredible success she’s had with her stunning independent publication Dumbo feather in a fiercely competitive market….. (a magazine she started single-handedly five years ago and with no journalism experience, mind you). No, mainly, it’s the fact that just a few seconds of googling brings up so many varied accolades and creative collaborations that I begin to wonder if there might be 25 Kate Bezars.

But no, there’s only 1. And she’s here, here, here and even here.

And of course, she’s here! [thedesignfiles.net] Read on for an insight into the inspiring world of ‘editor, publisher & dreamer’, Kate Bezar. Thanks so much for your time Kate!”

Thedesignfiles: “Tell me a little about your background – what did you study and what path led you to what you’re doing now?”

“I’d almost bet I’m the first person with a Chemistry degree to grace your blog!

I think, like a lot of people, I never really knew what I wanted to be when I grew up. So, when I finished school, even though my best marks were in English and Painting, I thought the more sensible thing to do would be to study Commerce and Science. That lead me to a very sensible career as a management consultant working on projects for companies like banks and airlines, both of which I also used a lot; I flew ridiculous amounts and was paid ridiculously well. That was pretty seductive, but on some really fundamental level I knew it wasn’t what I was meant to be doing with my life, it wasn’t what I was passionate about.

I was volunteering at art galleries on weekends just to get my ‘fix’. Eventually I walked into a newsagent one night wanting to buy a mag but just couldn’t find what I wanted. I wanted to read about real people who’d found what they were passionate about in life and how they’d gone about pursuing it. When I walked out of that newsagent and I hadn’t found a mag but I had found what I was going to do. I was going to make a mag for people like me.”

  32. Ivory Caple says:

    This post gives clear idea in support of the new visitors of blogging, that actually how to do running a blog.

  33. Although Vitamin Deficiencies Are A Relatively Rare Cause Of Hair
    Loss, Some Deficiencies Are More Common Than Others: First, I have to point out that unless you’re over a
    very restrictive diet, happen to be ill and
    so unable to get proper nutrition, or just have severe food limitations that restrict you in some manner, many people get enough (but they might
    not reach optimal levels) nutrition in order that any shortcomings usually do not rise to the level of deficiency that could be had to affect your hair.
    Sometimes the the signs of these disorders are extremely subtle and commence with reduced
    cognitive function followed by anemia and dementia.
    In case study that we are talking about, the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) had their researchers staring
    at the relationship between 25-hydroxy vitamin D and children’s fasting glucose levels.

  36. Besides being manufactured by your body, we could also get cholesterol from outer sources like
    dairy food, meats and eggs. So, when I was told the foodstuff to avoid high cholesterol
    levels, I will readily admit, I did not listen.
    I was surprised to find that I did not really move through way too many ups and downs.

The results are a collection of fun t-shirts and limited edition art prints – purr-fect for displaying a combined love of cats and cult movie characters!
