    So, died in Norwalk Hospital and buried in Beth El Cemetary in Norwalk. Anyone know where he lived? In Norwalk?

    Wonder what he’d say about Norwalk’s dribble of a logo?

    I think he lived in Weston. He designed the logo for the Connecticut Art Director’s Club.

    I don’t believe he would waste his breath on the stain that the City is using to visually represent itself. Well, maybe under this mayor it’s appropriate…

    His bio’s all say he was one of best in his trade comparing him to the best

    Paul Rand (born Peretz Rosenbaum, August 15, 1914 – November 26, 1996)

    He should have a spot on this web site he earned it and it has famous Norwalk people on it.

    one of my kids thought the thread was interesting enough for a project or report so we followed #1’s link and looked for the cementary here in Norwalk. Can anyone help me out where is the Beth El cementary ?
