Project: Writing, editing, design, and illustration for a book about Charles Lindbergh's time as a student in Madison.

I was asked to assemble the writing into a coherent narrative and design and produce the book. My work also included an original illustration of Lindbergh's historic flight to separate the time he spent in Madison before and after he became famous. This book combines many rarely seen photos from the University of Wisconsin archives with two narratives—the main text of the book describes what Lindbergh did at the UW and a side collection of campus events gives some flavor of the university and city at the time he was in Madison. Many photographs bleed off all four sides of the page to make them as large as possible, which is appropriate since they are the focus of the book. One photo was run across two pages. The text was placed in two unequal columns with different type treatments distinguishing the two narratives.
