Paul Lukas at ESPN’s Page 2 has a very interesting article on the uncredited designer of the MLB logo. He ends with this note:
He’s got a right to feel proud it’s a sensational design. And the more you learn about people like Dior and Sherman extremely talented creative professionals, most of whose work is done anonymously the more ridiculous it seems that designers don’t have higher public profiles. Here’s hoping this is one case where the designer finally gets the recognition he deserves.
Yes, save for a few “rock stars,” those of us in the creative industry remain anonymous. Such is the life we chose.
