   Experience

Began working in graphic design when the only tools were a chisel and hammer; was the real designer of the first printing press, the plans for which were stolen from him by Johann Gutenberg in 1439; in a dark period, worked with Robin Nicholas and Patricia Saunders in the development of the Arial typeface in 1982, a collaboration he denies to this day; worked at Prismacolor in the development of their line of permanent markers, but quit over creative differences when other designers insisted on creating more colors than Black, 80% Gray, 50% gray and 20% gray.
