In Memoriam: Chris Fix, Our Former Art Director

The Editors

Chris Fix and his wife, Tricia

The entire SKEPTICAL INQUIRER family mourns the loss of former Art Director Christopher S. Fix, who died of pancreatic cancer March 6 in Amherst, New York. He was only fifty-one. Chris joined our production staff in 2002 and became art director in 2008. Beginning with our January/February 2009 issue and ending with our May/June 2020 issue, when he had to step down due to his illness, Chris designed every SKEPTICAL INQUIRER cover and designed and laid out our inside pages, including selection of most art and illustrations. He did the same for our sister magazine, Free Inquiry, and also designed promotional materials for our combined Center for Inquiry organization. A Buffalo native and graphics designer, Chris’s working style was calm, quiet, professional. He leaves his parents, Norman and Dorothy Fix; his wife, Tricia; daughters, Samantha and Ava; and son, John. Our hearts go out to his family. We will miss him.
