Inspired by Emmett McBain

Emmett McBain was an African American Graphic Designer who’s work highlighted themes of the African American community and helped bring a positive image of African Americans to the mainstream. He designed impactful advertising, during the Civil Rights era and a series of iconic album covers throughout the sixties and seventies. McBain’s acquaintance Bruce Bendinger said:

“In the life of an ad man, you can be well paid but you’ll likely do a lot of trivial work. Emmett did work that mattered.”
