In this debut episode, Steve Ray—veteran print expert and unapologetic print problem solver—shares how half a century in the trade shaped his hands-on, no-nonsense approach. From his days as a 16-year-old apprentice compositor to running complex, custom jobs at Reynolds Press, Steve walks us through the evolution of print, why most printers shy away from the hard stuff, and why he never does. If you’ve ever had a job no one else could figure out, you might’ve just found your man.
