16. Jason Duzansky, Creative Director | Los Angeles, New York

Jason Duzansky recently worked as the art director on the instantly iconic book: “Linda Evangelista Photographed by Steven Meisel”. But probably without realizing it, you are always seeing images Jason helped create on billboards, in shop windows and magazines - wherever you might be in the world. Jason is a busy Creative Director based in Los Angeles and New York who works for many brands including Louis Vuitton and Chanel. Before going out on his own, Jason was "the right hand man" to Steven Meisel, serving as his in-house art director for 13 years. He grew up in Chicago and got his first break working at Visionaire Publishing in New York. 

This podcast is a Master Class for young people wondering how to break into fashion…and of course,  it is also for anyone who wants to know what it might have been like to work with Steven Meisel on all those Italian Vogue covers! Jason shares many memories working with and learning from the very private Meisel, who is considered the photographer of his generation.

Jason work is informed by a distinctive integration of typography and graphic design - he explains that his goal is to catch our eyes with work that is both chic and charming. Enjoy meeting the self-deferential and indeed very charming, Jason Duzansky in this Carton d’invitation podcast.
