Jeffrey Lease, of Granite Bay, Calif., designs printed circuit boards for cellphones at Google. He writes, "The process of designing a board and getting all the connections to fit is its own type of puzzle, so perhaps it's not surprising that my job and hobby overlap." Crosswords are his favorite puzzles to do, but he's also a fan of Wordle and Connections.

This is Jeff's first crossword for The Times. Another has been accepted and he's already working on a third.

Joel Fagliano and Christina Iverson are puzzle editors for The Times. Joel lives in Philadelphia, Christina in Ames, Iowa. They both have young kids and a fondness for "dumb jokes," as Joel puts it.

Christina writes, "We were in the middle of a brainstorm for a totally different Sunday puzzle when we'd hit a wall and Joel messaged me with this theme idea. Every step was collaborative, with a lot of back and forth in DMs, shared documents, and conversations over Google Meet."

Jill Rafaloff, of Forest Hills, Queens, and Michelle Sontarp, of Manhattan, met when they joined the same law firm directly out of law school more than 30 years ago. They've been friends ever since.

Jill has been solving crosswords since college, Michelle for six years or so. The two began constructing during the pandemic. This is their New York Times debut. The inspiration for the puzzle was 34-Across.

Adam Wagner, of Oakland, Calif., is a creative lead at Patreon, a monetization platform for content creators. This is his 16th crossword for The Times (and fifth Sunday).

Adam is part of a large community of Bay Area puzzlemakers. He speculates that the overlap between tech and crossword construction might be the reason for the concentration. Or maybe it's just something in the water?

This is his third crossword for The Times (and first Sunday). Dylan writes: "My students and fellow faculty members still can't get over the fact that real-life people — let alone someone they know — design crosswords!"

Rich Katz, of Park City, Utah, does freelance work in corporate restructuring.

This is his second crossword for The Times, following The Final Frontier in January. That puzzle had answers like DEATH EATER reinterpreted as D.E.A. THEATER ("Staging of a narc sting?") and PARK AVENUE as PARKA VENUE ("Iditarod, for one?"). For both puzzles, Rich's computer-savvy son searched databases for phrases that Rich could use as examples of his themes' wordplay.

Michael Schlossberg is an internist in Bend, Ore., who's been making crosswords for The Times since 2020. He says he got the idea for this one while thinking about the books he read to his kids when they were little. He tried to get all the circles in the puzzle to line up, but that proved to be impossible.

Michael says his favorite part of constructing is converting a theme idea into a completed grid — "more fun and challenging than actual solving."

Manaal Mohammed is a junior at M.I.T. studying computer science.

This is her first crossword for The Times. It started when she saw the phrase [27-Across] and thought that was an apt way to describe mac 'n' cheese. The grid is full of references with personal significance. Manaal is from the 7-Down area. Her mother uses 14-Down to make rotis. Her older sister used to be obsessed with 23-Downs. And her dad keeps a 41-Across interview stuck on the family refrigerator.

Lisa Senzel is a pathologist at Stony Brook Medicine on Long Island. She's been solving the New York Times crossword in print since 1994. Jeff Chen is a writer in Seattle.

The idea for this puzzle was Lisa's. Jeff wrote a program to generate possible theme answers, then designed the grid and guided Lisa through the fill. "Generous, funny, great people" is how Lisa describes Jeff and the other crossword mentors she's had.

John Kugelman is a software engineer and musician from Gainesville, Va. His father, who turns 80 this year, is a sounding board for John's puzzle ideas and John finds that brainstorming with him is a great way to stay connected. "Every time I see him we throw around all kinds of wordplay, just spitballing and letting our minds roam."

This is John's first crossword for The Times. It grew out of 38-Across.

This is her fourth puzzle for The New York Times — all Sundays. Her starting point for it was 58-Across. Chandi says, "I love the space a Sunday puzzle affords to be playful."

Michael Schlossberg is an internist in Bend, Ore. He's been making puzzles for The Times since 2020.

Eugene T. Maleska, the Times's crossword editor from 1977 to 1993, famously had 40 rejections from the old New York Herald Tribune before his first submission was accepted back in the day. Michael says he had 50 rejections of Sunday puzzles from us before he got a yes. That must set some sort of record for perseverance.

Christina Iverson, of Ames, Iowa, is an assistant puzzle editor for The Times. She reviews crossword submissions and helps edit the accepted ones for publication. This puzzle started as an 11 x 11-square grid in which every clue was an emoji. When that didn't work out, she revised and expanded her idea into what you see here.

Christina says, "I had hoped to convince someone to draw the pictures for me, but had no luck, so I drew them all myself."

Rebecca Goldstein, of Albany, Calif., is a research scientist at Merck, developing immunotherapies for cancer. Rafael Musa, of San Francisco, is a software engineer at Airbnb. Each has been published individually in The Times, but this is their first collaboration.

As friends they see each other occasionally at Bay Area puzzle events and otherwise. They worked separately, though, through many different versions, to implement this crossword's ambitious theme.

John Westwig is a software engineer in Seattle. He got into crosswords when he was very young, solving Games magazine on car trips with his family. Constructing came soon after. He sold his first puzzle to The Times in 2015, when he was 17.

This is his eighth (and first Sunday). "Lots of friends do the Times puzzle," John writes, "but most complain that mine are too hard."

Sam Ezersky is the digital puzzles editor for The Times. Besides helping with the crossword, he oversees other daily Times games like Spelling Bee and Letter Boxed.

This themeless grid (Sam's favorite kind to make) is his 40th construction for the paper. It has only 118 answers — the lowest word count in Sunday Times history. Nearly a quarter of the answers have never appeared in a Times puzzle before. Sam likes challenges. When you see his byline, he wants you to think, "Oh boy, time to buckle up!"

Rafael Musa, of San Francisco, is a software engineer at Airbnb. This is his third crossword for The Times.

The idea for it came from a giant 57/58-Across at the intersection of Castro and Market in San Francisco. "I was stuck at a light looking at it and thought — could this be a crossword puzzle? Turns out, yes, it can!" He adds, "This one is very special to me as it's running 10 years, almost to the day, after I came out for the first time."

Chandi Deitmer, of Cambridge, Mass., edits puzzles for Elevate Labs, a brain-training app. Taylor Johnson, of Minneapolis, is a stay-at-home dad who volunteers at a food co-op. After meeting via an email chain, they became friends and sounding boards for each other's work.

Chandi says, "The good thing about good friends is they tell you when your theme idea isn't landing — and offer to collaborate with you to make it better." Each has been previously published in The Times, but this is their first puzzle here together.

Robert Ryan, of London, is an economist for the U.K.'s Competition and Markets Authority. He lives 10 minutes by foot from the 21-Across. This is his second crossword for The Times, after his debut in March.

Having grown up on cryptics, Robert is fond of tricky clues. His favourite (as he would spell it) in this puzzle is 78-Across. "As long as the clues are fair, I find hard ones more satisfying as a solver."

Sid Sivakumar is an M.D./Ph.D. student at Washington University in St. Louis. This is his 15th crossword for The Times in three years.

He likes theme ideas and clues that are challenging but not forced. When you figure something out, he wants you to say, "Of course!," not "Uh ... OK, I get it." When possible, Sid includes South Asian references in his puzzles, as in the clue for 111-Down here.

Mike Hobin is a real estate agent and property developer in Chicago. While at home during the pandemic, he watched the 2006 documentary "Wordplay," about crosswords, and was inspired to try constructing one himself. Two years and two dozen submissions later, he's making his debut.

The seed of this puzzle was 116-Across. Then he thought of 24-Across … "and it really felt like I was on to something."

David Karp, of Victoria, British Columbia, is a civil servant who works on economic policy for his provincial government.

This was his second attempt at building a puzzle around 119-Across, which is his favorite band. The first attempt, in a themeless grid, didn't work out because the fill wasn't flashy enough. But here the band's name sets up some clever thematic wordplay, which is even better … and you don't need to know anything about the band to get it.

Robert Ryan, of London, is an economist for the U.K.'s Competition and Markets Authority. He grew up in Ireland, where he used to sit on his father's knee and "help" him solve the cryptic crossword in the back of a television guide. He subscribed to The New York Times in 2020 for its election coverage and soon got hooked on the crossword, which he now does every day.

This is Robert's first puzzle for the paper.

In his spare time, he does stage magic and stand-up comedy. With a partner, he once held the Guinness world record for the "longest continuous handshake" — 15+ hours. That's even longer than it took him to make this puzzle.

Will Nediger, of London, Ontario, is a professional crossword constructor. This is his 46th puzzle for The Times.

A typical Sunday crossword has 140 answers, but this one has only 136, affording some longer "fill" outside of the theme. Occasionally, as here, constructors include things personal to them in their grids. Will writes, "As a parent of two young kids, 49-Down next to 50-Down really resonates with me."

Garrett Chalfin, 18, is a senior at Riverdale Country School in New York City. Next year he'll begin studying philosophy at the University of Chicago. Last June, after chancing upon this puzzle's theme idea, he stayed up until 4:00 a.m. thinking of examples. He finished the puzzle while at summer camp, demonstrating to his co-counselors how to fill a crossword grid.

Michael Schlossberg is a doctor at St. Charles Medical Center, in Bend, Ore., specializing in internal medicine. He started constructing crosswords in 2018 after reading the series "How to Make a Crossword Puzzle" on The New York Times's website.

This is his sixth puzzle for the paper and his first Sunday. The idea for it came to him after he heard the answer at 121-Across in conversation and thought, I bet there's a literature-themed puzzle in there.

John Martz is a cartoonist, illustrator and book designer in Toronto, Ontario, who specializes in picture books and graphic novels for kids.

This is his first published crossword. He found that constructing it was akin to composing a page of comics. "The processes share a similar choreography of boxes and words and visual design."

In the past he's created an end-of-year crossword for co-workers. This puzzle, coincidentally, grew out of last year's.

Ryan McCarty, of Washington, D.C., is a principal consulting manager at a firm specializing in data/analytics for federal clients. He is also a baritone in multiple vocal ensembles.

This is his 23rd crossword for The Times, and his first Sunday. All but one of these puzzles have been themeless, like today's. To construct it, Ryan started in the middle and built outward, weaving lots of fresh, lively vocabulary. Twenty of the answers have never appeared in a Times crossword before.

Once in history class, her teacher announced to her from across the room, "12-Across is ALLIGATOR." She realized that the puzzle she was doing was reflected in her glasses.

Last spring, while a senior at Barnard, she was a member of The Times's first Diverse Crossword Construction Fellowship program. This is her first puzzle in the paper.

Adam Wagner, of Oakland, Calif., is a creative lead at the San Francisco-based 1-Down. (Solve the puzzle to find out who!) He's been constructing crosswords for The Times for two years.

This one started with the answers at 85- and 86- Down and branched out, literally, from there. Recently Adam released Anigrams, a free daily online word game that I find almost as addictive as Wordle. — W.S.

Joe Deeney, of Melrose, Mass., is a supply chain director for Philips, a health technology company based in Amsterdam. He's been solving crosswords for as long as he can remember.

In 2015 he was solving one he wasn't particularly fond of and thought, "I can do better than that!" This is Joe's 14th Times crossword and his first Sunday. He's now had a puzzle published on every day of the week — a personal goal.

Sam Donaldson is a law professor at Georgia State University, teaching Property to first-year students and Federal Income Tax and Trusts & Estates to upper-division ones. He's been making crosswords for The Times since 2008. Typically his grids have lots of lively vocabulary.

Sam writes, "This is one of those puzzles where solvers might not realize the theme until after they're done, so I wanted the process of getting to the finish line to be as enjoyable as possible."

Michael Lieberman, of Washington, D.C., is an attorney at Fairmark Partners LLP, a consumer-protection firm. This is his ninth Times crossword in two years. It started when the Billy Joel title "We Didn't Start the Fire" morphed in his head into "ennui didn't start the fire." That didn't make much sense, but it did make him laugh. He went searching for other such transformations to build a puzzle around.

Daniel Bodily, of Woodbury, Minn., is a robotics research engineer. Jeff Chen, of Seattle, is a professional writer and crossword constructor. Previously they collaborated on the Lincoln Memorial-themed puzzle that appeared in May.

The idea for this one was Dan's and started with 63-Across. He pondered the idea for months before reaching out to Jeff. A slew of attempts at construction ensued. "It's really fun to see where the dust settles," Dan says, "after raw ideas are filtered through the constraints of the dictionary and the grid."
