Jan V. White was former art director of magazines at Time Inc. An award-winning graphic designer, he was a communication design consultant to dozens of publication companies and hundreds of publications in his 55-year career. Author of fifteen books on the techniques of publishing and more than 250 articles published worldwide, White gave nearly two thousand seminars for both designers and editors in 27 countries. His point was always that publication design is a rational activity that uses type, image, and space to achieve real communication; further, designers must have a keen interest in words, and editors must understand the importance of design in revealing their stories. White held degrees in architecture from Cornell and Columbia Universities. He lived in Westport, Connecticut, and died in 2014.
