In this fun, fast-paced introduction to the most iconic designers of our time, author John Clifford takes you on a visual history tour that's packed with the posters, ads, logos, typefaces, covers, and multimedia work that have made these designers great.

Cassandre, Alvin Lustig, Cipe Pineles, Paul Rand, Saul Bass, Milton Glaser, Wim Crouwel, Stefan Sagmeister, John Maeda, Paula Scher, and more. Who coined the term graphic design? Who turned film titles into an art? Who pioneered information design? Who was the first female art director of a mass-market American magazine? In Graphic Icons: Visionaries Who Shaped Modern Graphic Design, you start with the who and quickly learn the what, when, and why behind graphic design's most important breakthroughs and the impact their creators had, and continue to have, on the world we live in. div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: no≠ white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"Your favorite designer didn't make the list?
