I was a student of Jim’s years ago as well-I regret not visiting his shop when I had the opportunity a few years later. Very sad to hear this-he was one of the best people I have ever met.

I too was a proud student of Jim’s. There are so many people that this beloved man has touched – he was, and is, a true inspiration to so many artists and designers. I’m sad to hear of his passing, and hope that you are able to truly capture within your film just how inspirational, creative, selfless and dedicated he was to his craft. He will be dearly missed!

Jim was a teacher of mine when I was in design school, and he did the invitations to my wedding. He was the warmest, friendliest man. He gave so much of himself to the people around him. So sad to hear that he’s passed. I would love to know when and where you’ll be showing that movie when it’s done.

Ryan,
What a fortunate choice you made to pursue making a documentary about Jim – from the little I’ve read here, it seems he had a story and a life well worth sharing. Can’t wait to see a little of what you’ve shot – perhaps you could put a teaser together in the coming weeks as a short tribute?
