Milton Glaser

Originally from New York, Milton Glaser (129 - 2020 NYC) is among the most celebrated graphic designers in the world. A prolific illustrator and designer, he is renowned for his CD and book designs, posters and logos, including the iconic I ♥ NY.

As a Fulbright scholar, Glaser studied with the painter Giorgio Morandi in Bologna. He co-founded the revolutionary Push Pin Studios in 1954 and the New York Magazine in 1968. In 1974, he launched Milton Glaser, Inc. where he continues to produce a prodigious amount of work.

In 2009, he was the first graphic designer to receive the National Medal of the Arts award, and has enjoyed solo exhibitions at the Museum of Modern Art in New York and the Georges Pompidou Centre in Paris. Honored with lifetime achievement awards from the Cooper Hewitt National Design Museum (2004) and the Fulbright Association (2011), Glaser is an articulate spokesman for ethical design practices.

Thanks

This website is dedicated to all those people who, in one way or another, have helped this project/dream/desire to begin and take shape.

Special thanks to my wife and my parents for supporting me, to Cristina Escarrà and Alfonso Pérez Rosales for generously sharing with me their experience as agents, to those clients who, in one way or another, have given me wise advice, to the brands that have placed their trust in me, and to Gonzalo, my godfather, who, with his always generous help, and guiding me throughout this process, is largely to blame for the fact that I can boast of being an “entrepreneur”.

Thanks also to Nuria, Rafa and Guillermo, who, to help me in the hard beginnings of any entrepreneurial activity, have opened the doors of their home, let me share with them a bit of their personal lives when I pass through their cities of residence, and give me free accommodation.

Thanks to all!
