Patrick Redmond—President Emeritus March 31, 2014
Patrick Redmond the year I was a member and chair of the “Design for Society Award” committee of AIGA Minnesota, when the organization was known as MGDA, Minnesota Graphic Designers Association. I had been president in 1979. I am shown with the Wasatch 400 computer paint system, an early, stand-alone computer graphics system used by pioneering computer graphics firm “COMCEPT,” a firm I co-founded.
