Gretchen Nash. Graphic Designer. LA.
Dear Gretchen, is a 530 pg book that looks/analyses 187 letters that Gretchen has kept since childhood. Gretchen found the word and phrase frequency of the letters, categorizing them by sender, by date, and then wrote a personal reflection about each sender. The graphs she created show the word frequency.
