They are unknown, but their works of art are seen by hundreds of millions of people across the globe.

They are Google doodlers, a small team of artists who create the decorative logos for the company’s home page, images that celebrate events as varied as the 30th anniversary of Pac-Man and the 70th birthday of John Lennon to the invention of the bar code and the landing of the Mars rover.
