Throughout his life, Kramer has had an extensive history of schooling, attending schools such as New York State University, the Institute of Design (New Bauhaus) in Chicago, and Yale. After schooling, Kramer went on to do many things for the design community as he worked for many prestigious companies. In 1974 Kramer got his Canadian citizenship which led him to create such things as the CBC Logo, after that he was then accepted into the AGI as one of the only Canadian designers to do so at that time. He taught at the Ontario College of Art & Design in the 80s but has given lectures all around the world. His body of work is bold and it speaks for itself. This is why it’s no surprise that he’s been given awards such as a Lifetime Achievement Award as well as in 2018 he was also awarded the Order of Canada, the country\u2019s highest civilian honour. Kramer no longer continues to design, as he retired in 1993 and now uses his time to paint. His legacy, however, is carried on by his son, Jeremy Kramer who now runs his design company.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
