About

I’m H. Todd Duren, Assistant Professor in Media Technologies at Pellissippi State Technical Community College, where I teach graphic design. My BFA is from Austin Peay, and my MFA from Cranbrook Academy of Art. With 20 years in practice as a designer, I’m particularly interested in typography, identity design, advertising design, and editorial design. I’ve also begun exploring open source tools and resources for design and design education.

Mr. Duren, I lost your school e-mail address so I figured since I frequent your blog I could get ahold of you here. Question about the poster project. Since it is a “Campaign” can I make up a fake web address to direct people to or should it be REAL? Thank you sir. I also just got my new issue of Graphic Design USA and it had an article on Chip Kidd. I am picking that book up. Word.
