It’s a seasonal tradition at C-VILLE to search the landscape for fascinating specimens of local talent and power. We call it The Yearbook, and the theme for 2010 is Fame, though that might not mean what you think. We’re not talking first-name-only fame here. Click here to read this week’s cover story and meet 25 people who live everyday lives among us, yet who, when they’re on other stages, command the spotlight. Doctors, writers, astronomers, potters—fame touches many fields. And below, Erika Howsare talks about the making of the 2010 Yearbook issue.
