I believe she also designed the Chicago font, which was then used in iPods.

Classic Macintosh bitmap fonts were (and are?) beautiful. A couple of days ago I was amazed at how clear and legible Monaco 9 (bitmap or non-antialiased) is on a 32" 4K monitor.

Regarding Chicago, I keep seeing its TrueType imitation (which isn't as beautiful as the bitmap version, but is distinctive) everywhere.
