Charley Harper: An Illustrated Life Details
Review "This gorgeously reproduced overview of the work of American modernist Charley Harper is a labor of love from Todd Oldham. ... Oldham's tribute to his hero (who died in 2007, at age 84) floats on the wings of these beautiful creatures and Harper's expressive, one-of-a-kind talent." —NPR Read more About the Author Distinguished as an innovator of accessible design, Todd Oldham is the founder of Todd Oldham Studio, a full-service design firm.

Reviews
As is Charley Harper - This book is AWESOME. My only beef, and I probably should have looked closer when I ordered it, is that it's very small. I actually saw this book in real life at the library and it was a huge, very cool coffee table book (probably 18"x14") or so, and about an inch thick. VERY cool for his stuff! This is not "small", necessarily (it's like 10x8 or something), but has far less impact than the huge one did. Still cool, but I'd recommend the huge one, if you can handle it! ;)
