Dominic Grijalva, independent graphic artist and Design Director for the Stage Directors and Choreographers Society, kicks off the new Behind the Scenes Series on Laura Heywood Interviews, where we explore fascinating people outside the spotlight.

Broadway fans will recognize Dom's work for TeeRico — Lin-Manuel Miranda’s personalized, family-based, philanthropic merchandise line. Other design work extends to logos and advertising for reputable regional theaters, for shows including Carrie, Heathers, The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night Time, Rock of Ages, Dog Fight, Into the Woods, and In The Heights and many more.

He’s a projection designer — having worked on regional productions of Disney’s The Little Mermaid, Les Miserables, and even an Australian production of Phantom of the Opera! And his work expands into the world of  book covers and album art and, and award winning animation art.
