Her work is extremely important to the Mac and to Apple, but I don't like hero worship articles. It was a team effort, and there were a lot of people responsible for making the Mac (and Apple) what they were/are.

When people wrote lots of hero worship articles about Jobs they missed the contributions of Kare and others. This quote does the same thing:

> “If the Mac turned out to be such a revolutionary object––a pet instead of a home appliance, a spark for the imagination instead of a mere work tool––it is thanks to Susan’s fonts and icons, which gave it voice, personality, style, and even a sense of humor. Cherry bomb, anyone?”

Her work is important and great, but she didn't do it in a vacuum.

It seems like every profile of someone nowadays has to make them out to be a singular genius who's work is of individual, utmost importance. It's not enough to just say "Hey look at this cool stuff this person did!" They have to be singularly responsible for something.
