"2006 Year in Review" Whew! 2006 was an astonishing year! Here are some highlights we'd like to share: Liza damns the man, and starts working for the woman - herself! After many years of hating the man and trying to find the energy for a freelance career on the side, Liza finally had the nerve (smarts?) to set off completely on her own. Good things happened. Grey Markets 1 & 2 A dream for a long time, The Grey Market finally became reality. Between installments one and two, TGM championed over 50 Iowa designers and businesses, and gave literally thousands of Iowans a place to buy cool Iowa stuff. A highlight was when Juice included TGM in it's annual year-end round up: + GREY MARKET. A novel idea in the East Village: Fashion-forward clothing from Iowa designers, entertainment, booze. Two times in, it's looking like something that hopefully continues for a while. Props to Liza Kindred. (Thumbs up) Yay! Lullabot! Working to help Lullabot achieve blow their goals out of the friggin' water was an awesome part of 2007! This company, just finishing up it's first year, has achieved international acclaim in it's field. Liza helped this awesome company work with such well-known (and nice!) clients as Yale University, MTV US, MTV UK, Sony BMG, Participant Productions, and many, many others. Liza also plans their workshops from them, from coast to coast. 1st Juice fashion cover
