More About the Author

David E. Carter is the top selling producer of "creative compilation" books in the history of graphic design. He has more than 110 books in print on the topics of logos, graphic design and advertising. David produced the very first logo book as a self-described "kid in my twenties" and that launched a large increase in interest in "creative compilation" books.

He books were published by HarperCollins from 1996 through 2008, when he saw major changes taking place in the publishing industry. As he re-charged his battery, he saw the potential of eBooks, and began his plan for "what's next."

In 2010, David announced that he would once again be a books pioneer - moving to the eBooks world exclusively. He founded Bright Books, which has 16 eBooks scheduled for release in 2012. (See www.brightbooks.com)

In addition to his work in books, David is a multiple Clio Award winner for his advertising campaigns. His work in television production has won seven Emmy Awards.

His recent documentary - one that he calls "my love poem to baseball" - was screened at the Baseball Film Festival at the National Baseball Hall of Fame at Cooperstown, New York in 2010.
