The assignment was to create a typographic poster advertising an event for a trailblazer from the Greater Cincinnati area.
The focus of this poster was Elizabeth Blackwell, the first woman to earn a medical degree in the United States as well as the first woman on the British medical record to be listed as a doctor.
Through my research, I realized that I wanted the message to be loud and dynamic in order to show the struggles she went through to become a doctor in her time.
