The AIGA Center for Cross-Cultural Design (AIGA XCD) has given two AIGA Fellow Awards and Shelly Langton has received the fellow award from the AIGA Seattle Chapter for her key role in founding AIGA XCD.

This year, we (at XCD) presented AIGA Fellow Awards to two of the early voices for cross-cultural design, Aaron Marcus and Henry Steiner.

- Aaron Marcus, president of Aaron Marcus and Associates in Berkeley, CA
Shelly Langton presented the award to Aaron at a San Francisco Chapter award ceremony in June.

Shelly is very humble about her role. She never liked to take the spotlight, but it would not have happened without her. She is the person who introduced me to Icograda and provided much of the drive, connections, and insight necessary to make the organization successful.
