Drip-dry Shirts: the Evolution of the Graphic Designer by Lucienne Roberts

Includes a series of illustrated interviews with designers such as Ken Garland, Wim Crouwel, Milton Glaser, Karl Gerstner and Rosmarie Tissi, each of whom place their work in historical and personal contexts as they reflect on their formative years and long careers. This title is rich in anecdotes and observations, as influential designers speak honestly about what it was like to make design history.
Lucienne Roberts studied graphic design at the Central School of Art and Design. After a brief period at The Women's Press, she established the studio sans+baum, hoping to ally a commitment to accessible and engaging design with a socially aware agenda. Roberts' new studio Lucienne Roberts started at the end of 2006, working mainly in the arts and voluntary sectors. In 2000 Roberts was a signatory of the First Things First manifesto. She has taught at Yale and the London College of Communication and was a D&AD judge in 2008. Roberts is a regular contributor to Eye magazine and Grafik.
