After progress meeting..


It was suggested that I...

Make the subtitle bolder, to fix the div at the bottom of the page because it was going over the border, tighten the space around the picture, add a caption for the video, change the color red I used for the text by going in to Photoshop, making it zero padding/margins in the body at the top of the page and to fix the heart in my header because it was originally cropped off at the bottom point.

I did all of the above as shown here from my previous images of the website.

I added more pictures of his work and a video and changed/ messed around with font in the subtitle.

Milton Glaser

Born in 1929.
He was educated at the High School of Music and Art and the Cooper Union art school in New York and, via a Fulbright Scholarship, the Academy of Fine Arts in Bologna, Italy. 
One of the most celebrated graphic designer in the US.
In 2004 he was selected for the lifetime achievement award of the Cooper Hewitt National Design Museum. 
He opened Milton Glaser, Inc. in 1974, and continues to produce work in many fields of design to this day.
"He is a modern renaissance man— one of a rare breed of intellectual designer-illustrators, who brings a depth of understanding and conceptual thinking, combined with a diverse richness of visual language, to his highly inventive and individualistic work."
He co-founded the revolutionary Pushpin Studios in 1954, founded New York Magazine with Clay Felker in 1968, established Milton Glaser, Inc. in 1974, and teamed with Walter Bernard in 1983 to form the publication design firm WBMG. 
Throughout his career, Glaser has been a prolific creator of posters and prints. 
His artwork has been featured in exhibits worldwide, including one-man shows at both the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris and the Museum of Modern Art in New York. 
His work is in the permanent collections of many museums. 
Glaser also is a renowned graphic and architectural designer with a body of work ranging from the iconic logo to complete graphic and decorative programs for the restaurants in the World Trade Center in New York. 
Glaser is an influential figure in both the design and education communities and has contributed essays and granted interviews extensively on design.
