I always loooooved the Lisa Frank notebooks and stickers and all those AMAZING things...
I never thought Lisa Frank was an ACTUAL person, like I thought it was just a random name they came up with.
But apparently, no. Apparently Lisa Frank is REAL.
I think what she created was so damn fucking amazing.

Imagine how much you would have to be proud of if you created all that stuff and owned that company...
That's like a dream come true. Like a wild, otherworldly dream.
So proud, OMG.

I really don't think that the cool stuff Lisa Frank made could ever actually go out of style...
I think, more likely, she made a FUCKTONNN of money and came up against hurdles that were eventually just not worth dealing with anymore on a personal level...
She's 64 years old, so who wants to deal with the BS? Time to retire and live in peace, TBH.
She sounds like a smart woman, my guess is whatever she did, she made the right choice for the right reasons.

Lisa would have been 16 or so when Willy Wonka came out...
I wonder if she was somehow inspired by it.

OMG, there's an interview...
I'm nervous OMG.
She starts off talking about how people assumed she must have done a ton of psychedelics in order to come up with the stuff, LOL!
She's been super private about her life and wouldn't allow them to actually show her face. Wow... the REALLLLLL fucking deal. That's THE REAL DEAL right there ladies and gentlemen.
0:42 you're EVERYTHING we could ever want.
1:18 OMFFFFFF, it's showing the ORIGINAL ART!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So what IS the deal with the art... did Lisa Frank make it all, for real?? Is she the artist?? Is that a dumb question?? I have NO idea.
2:08 she looks like a hottie TBH.
Wow...
Look at her walking through that factory, OMG I want to cry sooooo fucking hard right now like...
This is so amazing, I mean yeah it's not running anymore, but...
You can just tell she's COOL with it, she's cool with it ALL.
She LIVED that dream.
2:26 so it sounds like the art was contracted?? I'm not hearing anything about her being the actual artist.
Did she just envision it all and then other people drew it??
2:46 she says she wouldn't WANT to be a manufacturer again... wow!!! Told ya!!!
2:56 so she's coloring on some stuff... I just wonder if she was actually the original artist or what the deal was with that.
It doesn't matter to me whether SHE actually made the art or not... I was just wondering if the interview would address that.

This is from 1998...
So this should have been the heyday of the brand, since the factory opened in 1996.
And this interview was 19 years after she founded it.
0:45 ROFL the dudes wearing those shirts... I bet they were stoked about that!!! (((Sarcasm)))
1:30 "20 years ago, two struggling artists"... wow, so yeah Lisa is an artist and apparently she and this dude designed the first stuff.
1:48 there's Lisa Frank uncensored!!!
2:10 fucking brilliant.
2:31 so they were married, wow.
2:40 so interesting, this guy seems soooooo familiar.
Fucking amazinggggggg.
great , she finally found a market for her LSD inspired paintings

LOL Dickie!
Maybe.
All I know is that Lisa Frank was like an angel in the light to me yesterday...
I was thinking about some creative projects, kinda tormented over it all...
Then I remembered Lisa, and everything she had accomplished...
I Googled her and lo and behold it was her birthday!
It's magic, man... inspiration.
