Paula Scher Inducted into ‘Hall of Femmes’ in New Book
Pentagram’s Paula Scher is the subject of a new volume in the “Hall of Femmes” book series honoring female graphic design legends. Produced by Swedish design duo Hjärta Smärta and published by Oyster Press, the book is constructed as a long interview with Scher covering four decades of her career, from her days as an art director at CBS Records in the 1970s to recent work designing prominent identities for Citibank, The Museum of Modern Art, The Metropolitan Opera and Bausch + Lomb and large-scale environmental graphics for Bloomberg and the Achievement First Endeavor Middle School in Brooklyn.
Scher’s is the fourth book in the series following entries on Ruth Ansel, Lillian Bassman and Carin Goldberg. The book is available for order from Dashwood Books in New York and Amazon.
