A career retrospective with the graphic design legend, educator and role model, Michael Bierut

Last September at Nicer Tuesdays in New York, our US editor-at-large Elizabeth Goodspeed sat down for a chat with legendary designer Michael Bierut. In this insightful Q&A, Michael told the audience about his experiences working with a variety of clients, the responsibility that designers have to service “beauty” and how he has shaped his practice over time – from making theatre posters when he was starting out, to designing some of the world’s best known brand identities at Pentagram.
