Interviews of User Experience Pioneers



This past weekend, I learned about Tamara Adlin's website focuses on User Experience Pioneers, including an interview of people like, Arnie Lund. The are fascinating recounts of their life experiences and how they got interested in User Experience. I took my first Human Factors course as an elective during my Senior year in college. At that point, I was already interested in Psychology and computers. That's why I joined the Human-Computer Interaction at the University of Maryland to work with the likes of Ben Shneiderman (who is also featured on this website). What about your life? How did you get interested in this field?

I had this professor at Lewis & Clark College that encouraged my interest in the cognitive aspects of the user experience.
