Interviews With Ruth Kedar, The Woman Who Designed The Google Logo

The Israeli woman behind the Google logo from Haaretz, an Israeli newspaper, has an interview like story about Ruth Kedar. Ruth was contracted by Larry Page and Sergey Brin to design the Google Logo. Unfortunately, she did not accept payment in shares of Google stock.

Besides for the Haaretz interview, Google Blogoscoped has a brief interview from earlier this year with Ruth as did Wired with this write up. Ruth even has her own Wikipedia entry, as one might expect. The big question is, how much did the Google logo cost?
