Mad dogs, trail guides, and other heroes.

 

From Atticus Finch stopping a mad dog and then championing Tom Robinson, to the guy who pushed me (figuratively) to the top of Yosemite’s Half Dome, my heroes come in all shapes and sizes. There are design trailblazers—like those captured here celebrating Visual Asylum’s 25th anniversary—and there are tireless advocates fighting animal extinction at San Diego Wildlife Alliance. From my teachers to my baristas, from friends to family…my heroes light the way.
