James Victore runs an independent design studio hell-bent on world domination. He is an author, designer, educator and activist. Victore is widely known for his timely wisdom and impassioned views about design and it's place in the world. He expresses these views and teachings through his numerous lectures, workshops, and writings. More recently, he has gained a following for his weekly creative email/video series, "Burning Questions," a place where he addresses questions from fellow creatives about design, work, life, and everything in-between. James' work has been exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art in New York and is represented in the permanent collections of the museums around the globe. His clients include Bobbi Brown Cosmetics, Esquire Magazine, Moet Chandon, the School of Visual Arts and The New York Times. In 2010 his work was published in a monograph titled, "Victore or, Who Died and Made You Boss?" (Abrams). He lives, loves and works in Brooklyn.
