Jim Weidlein founded Information Design, an educational publishing company, in 1986. The company produces print and online magazines and books in diverse fields including Native American education, environmental health, solar energy, and United Kingdom investing. Though he finally handed down his clarinet to his son, Jim’s interest in world music still has him playing an assortment of international flutes. As the parent of a music major, he is inspired to apply his publishing expertise to MajoringInMusic.com.
