I am delighted to welcome my next guest, Don Flood. Don is an accomplished Celebrity/Beauty, Fashion, and Athletic photographer. His photographs have appeared in such publications as Vanity Fair, In-Style and Esquire just to name a few. He has worked for such notable clients as Victoria’s Secret, CoverGirl, and Pantene. His celebrity portraits include the likes of Jennifer Lawrence, Diane Lane, Naomi Watts, Eva Mendez, and Jessica Biehl, as well as famous recording artists, Janet Jackson, Snoop Dog, Fergie and Adam Lambert.

He is also the creator and company owner of an exceptionally provocative and inspiring line of wallpaper, for both residential and commercial spaces, appropriately named Fliepaper. It’s a stunning collection.

In 2018, his Beetle design was taken into the permanent collection of the Cooper Hewitt/ Smithsonian Museum.

Today we speak to Don about growing up in Chicago, his inspiration from the fields of Architecture, Photography & Art. We talk about his bold graphic collection of wallpaper titled “Fliepaper”. 

We also have a few surprises in store……. for example, guess who mastered the art of Chicago deep-dish pizza? Did you know Don was in radio? Who helped him make tuna sandwiches on his set when he started out as a photographer? And who do you think he would like to photograph next?

Hope you enjoy the show, please see links below to explore Don’s work.
