Designer Profile

Research Assignment__________________________________________________

From a random drawing, you will select a designer and research his/her 
contribution to the history of the design profession with which they are 
associated. This profile should take the form of a short article of about 
500 to 1000 words. It should include:

 	a picture of the designer;
 	
	pictures of some of the products or innovations for which they 
	are known;
 	
	biographical data;
 	
	a philosophical profile; 
 	
	a concise description of the society and times in which the 
	  designer lives/ed and works/ed. and
 	
	an annotated bibliography.

The article should be word-processed on 8 1/2" x 11" paper. The cover 
should feature the designer's name and a picture of a well-known example 
of his or her work, and identify the author. The entire profile package 
should incorporate appropriate graphic elements to draw in and hold the 
attention of the reader, and be attractive to look at.
