Publications author, conference keynote speaker and more…
Dan has maintained an active role in the UX professional community as a thought leader, author and teacher for more than 45 years. He is often invited to be the keynote speaker for conferences within the UX area as well as more general technical conferences.
Dan was one of the first practitioners of the Rapid Prototyping method which he documented in the first edition of the Handbook of Human Computer Interaction published in 1988 and through workshops he taught world wide on rapid prototyping beginning in 1987. He is also an expert on UX globalization, design leadership and UX management topics.
A nearly complete listing of his published works, presentations and educational workshops can be found below.
