Limited Edition Book Launch in San Francisco
First Bite Press played a part in the first book launch for San Francisco based author, Theodore “Ted” Gioia. The event featured an interview between Ted and designer and writer, George McCalman, about the publication of Ted’s first novella, The Token of Dorian Gray. The illustrator, Laurelin Gilmore, was also present at the event. It was great to be in the same room with both the author and the illustrator having worked with both in collaboration to design the book.
