Seymour Chwast Reflects on the Early Days of the Push Pin Studio with Milton Glaser

<p>In my senior year of college, I was a disenfranchised art student. I had a bad attitude and thought to myself why the hell I ever bothered to pursue a career in graphic design. And then I found Milton Glaser and nothing was ever the same. His work was vibrant, psychedelic, electric and refined all at the same time.</p><p>Milton was one my all time favorite designers - if not my favorite. I’ve spent countless hours trying to emulate his style.</p><p>In 2017, I spent an afternoon with Seymour Chwast hearing stories about the early days of the Pushpin studio with Milton, Ed Sorrel and Reynold Ruffins. This is an excerpt from that conversation. </p><p>Milton was a true practitioner. A master of his craft. An anomaly. His color palettes alone are genius. Rest easy to one of the best to ever do it. ❤️😭</p><p>Photo by Catalina Kulczar</p>
