I met Bill when we worked together on the Stanford Design Conference committee.
Bill brought that impish sense of humor and expansive knowledge of, and delight in design to every meeting. Despite his demanding schedule at IDEO he brought brilliant speakers and unbridled enthusiasm to every moment of the conference and beyond.
He always took time to tell us about his son’s band schedule and Karin’s projects and had an amazing balance , or perhaps it was merging, of work and family. I feel so fortunate to have known him and experienced his brilliance, generosity, curiosity and humanity.
