We're taking the summer off to recharge our creative batteries. Please enjoy revisiting this episode from our archives!


Graphic designer Paula Scher grew up drawing pictures to escape a turbulent home life. Later, rebelling against suburban existence, she ventured to art school and became a hippie, and then art directed album covers in NYC. She\u2019s been a partner at Pentagram since \u201891. In her ~50 years in the business she has blazed trails, upended boys\u2019 clubs, committed \u201ctypographical blasphemy,\u201d given form to the zeitgeist, and earned herself a reputation as one of the world\u2019s most influential graphic designers.
