To Inform and Delight

Milton Glaser, who recently became the first graphic designer to receive the National Medal of Arts, has left his mark on everything from iconic ad campaigns and brand identities to book covers and interiors. Among his latest projects is a bold theater marquee inspired by the helical dream tower of Vladimir Tatlin. Glaser's foray into theater design came just in time for the release of Milton Glaser: To Inform and Delight. Directed by first-time filmmaker Wendy Keys, the documentary peers into the daily life of Glaser, now 80, and his colorful career. Arthouse Films has just announced that they'll release the film on DVD next month, so pre-order your copy now.
