Acknowledgments
I am grateful to the guest creators for allowing me to include their origami designs. Their models enrich the book’s collection. The following individuals tested particular projects which was quite helpful: Gay Merrill Gross, Barry B. Miller, Bill Reyes, and Millie Camacho Richardson. I also appreciate the general advice provided to me by Gay Merrill Gross, Robert J. Lang, and Meenakshi Mukerji. A heartfelt thank you is offered to my extraordinary editor William Notte for his guidance and expertise. In addition, I appreciate the hard work and enthusiasm of the staff at Tuttle Publishing. Lastly, I thank my husband Barry for his patience and for finishing the photography when my ankle was sprained. I have written this book in memory of my parents.
