who is john gall?

John Gall, Vice President and Art Director for Vintage and Anchor Books, shows that you can get anywhere in life as long as you put your mind to it.  When he started out, he initially wasn't interested in Graphic Design.  School began and he was going to be an architect, but after taking a few art courses he leaned toward design and away from architecture.  John began his work as a designer by painting signs for grocery stores.  After that he started creating cd covers followed by his most recent work, bookjackets.  John's work is very unique and fun.  Below are some examples of bookjackets he has created.  As an art director for the company now he mostly oversees designs, but still does some of the work these days.  Mr. Gall is an excellent designer and continues to create interesting work.
