Richard Poynder has patiently been working on conducting a series a lengthy and highly qualitative online interviews: the Basement Interviews.

The last series of 3 are essentially concerned with the founders of open access publishing initiatives, and I have indexed them here.

They concern Harold Varmus, Nobel Laureate and co-founder of the Public Library of Science; Vitek Tracz, of BioMed Central, who focuses on the business model involved,
a two-parter with India’s Subbiah Arunachalam focuses on the importance of open access for countries like India.
