For more than fifty years, Walter Bernard and Milton Glaser have
revolutionized the look of magazine journalism. In Mag Men, Bernard
and Glaser recount their storied careers, offering insiders'
perspective on some of the most iconic design work of the twentieth
century. The authors look back on and analyze some of their most
important and compelling projects, from the creation of New York
magazine to redesigns of such publications as Time, Fortune, Paris
Match, and The Nation, explaining how their designs complemented a
story and shaped the visual identity of a magazine. Richly
illustrated with the covers and interiors that defined their
careers, Mag Men is bursting with vivid examples of Bernard and
Glaser's work, designed to encapsulate their distinctive approach
to visual storytelling and capture the major events and trends of
the past half century. Highlighting the importance of collaboration
in magazine journalism, Bernard and Glaser detail their
relationships with a variety of writers, editors, and artists,
including Nora Ephron, Tom Wolfe, Gail Sheehy, David Levine,
Seymour Chwast, Katherine Graham, Clay Felker, and Katrina vanden
Heuvel. The book features a foreword by Gloria Steinem, who
reflects on her work in magazines and her collaborations with
Bernard and Glaser. At a time when uncertainty continues to cloud
the future of print journalism, Mag Men offers not only a personal
history from two of its most innovative figures but also a reminder
and celebration of the visual impact and sense of style that only
magazines can offer.
