Couple more designers to show:

Eugene Winslow (1919 – 2001)

Born in Dayton, Ohio, into a family of seven children, Eugene Winslow’s parents stressed the importance of education and encouraged their children to study the arts. Winslow attended Dillard University, receiving his Bachelor of Fine Arts degree. He then served in WWII as part of the revered Tuskegee Airmen.

After the war, Winslow nurtured his lifelong artistic interest by attending The Art Institute of Chicago and the Illinois Institute of Technology. Winslow then went on to co-found the Am-Afro Publishing house based out of Chicago, where in 1963, they published Great American Negroes Past and Present with Winslow’s illustrations. That same year, he also designed the seal commemorating the 100th anniversary of the Emancipation Proclamation for the Chicago Exposition. Throughout his career as an artist, designer, businessman, and entrepreneur, Winslow always sought to promote racial integration wherever possible.

Featured African American Designer:

Leroy Winbush (1915 – 2007)
One week after graduating high school, Winbush left Detroit for Chicago to become a graphic designer. His inspiration and mentors at the time were sign designers on Chicago’s South Side. He began creating signage, flyers, and murals for the Regal Theater, where he rubbed elbows with some of the most famous black musicians of the time.

Remembering our dog Nala who we walked around Los Angeles during the pandemic landing on Lassie's star. Very nice day. Happy Walk Your Dog Day friends.

Here are some tips learned from WordCamp Canada last month. Hope it helps you get to the next level in your marketing.

Note: I'll also share some nice shots of the places I visited. Ottawa, Canada is beautiful. The Carleton University is bounded to the North by the Rideau Canal and Dow's Lake so it just enhances the views.
