Erik Dunham started his design career in advertising before working at the Baltimore Museum of Art designing and installing exhibition graphics. He began designing websites in 1996, focusing first on visual and interaction design, then exploring and integrating user-experience design, information architecture and e-commerce design. Dunham joined National Public Radio's nascent NPR Online department in 1999 and helped design, build and launch web properties for the public broadcasting community. After a brief stint as an information architect with the spectrum auction division of the Federal Communications Commission, he joined The Corporation for Public Broadcasting in 2004 where he led the creation of websites and applications. Dunham has taught graphic and web design at Coker University and Marymount University and continues to help clients create websites as a freelance consultant and designer. He is on the team that helps make the Small Press Expo happen every year. His goal as a design educator is to help students build their confidence, curiosity and craft. He collects books about the history of typography and printing and loves thoughtful design, cats, semiotics, race cars, old books and sweater weather.
