I was thrilled to see accessbility blog. I know Lee as well, and instantly liked her.
She's warm and funny, but in her role as an event planner, always professional, on top of everything, gracious to all her guests, and has a tough streak I admire. Do not ever tell Lee she can't do something.
Matt's interview with her focuses on her sight problems due to "I prefer a black background with yellow or white text."
I, on the other hand, can barely stand to sit in front of a web page with black or very dark backgrounds.
The sheer scope of the job of making web pages readable is enormous, given that sight problems vary so widely.
Hats off to Matt and Lee for sharing her story. Matt has other interviews in his blog that are also worth cuddling up to your computer for.
