About the Film:
For many, Milton Glaser is the personification of American graphic design.

From newspapers and magazine designs, to interior spaces, logos, and brand identities, to his celebrated prints, drawings, posters and paintings, the documentary offers audiences a much richer appreciation for one of the great modern renaissance men.Artfully directed by first time filmmaker Wendy Keys, the film glances into everyday moments of Glaser’s personal life and captures his immense warmth, humanity and the boundless depth of his intelligence and creativity.
A 30×40 movie-size poster for the film will also be raffled off.
