(from February 2010)
It's not everyday one gets to share a book on which a client help create, so I am figuring a healthy shout-out is in order here.
Stuart Scott created a coffeetable book called We Shall Overcome: A Song That Changed The World. The book tells the story of how the famous song played a galvanizing role in the civil rights movement, as well as other social events during the period. There is a CD recording of the song included with the book.
Terrance Cummings, a former Zimana client, created the illustrations for the book. Cummings is an award winning illustrator, an art director, and a former teacher at Parsons School of Design. He has illustrated several books in his past, along with managing catalog layout design and graphic design projects for corporate clients. He has a studio in New Jersey, just outside of New York City.
Stuart Scott's appearance will be at Politics and Prose in Washington DC on February 11th (click here to learn more) . You can purchase the book via Amazon (click here for purchase). The Amazon site also has a cool video to accompany the post.
I wish the very best to Stuart and Terrance.
And I wish the very best to all during Black History Month.
Pierre
