April Greiman is an award-winning graphic designer who is best known for her revolutionary work in the world of digital imaging. She was born in 1948 and grew up in New York City. She studied art in Switzerland at the Basel School of Design, and at the Kansas City Art Institute. After graduating she moved back to New Yorck City to work as a freelance artist until 1976, when she moved to Los Angeles. It was there that she founded her design company, April Greiman Incorporated.

In 1985 she started the project that would bring her worldwide recognition. Hired by the magazine Design Quarterly, she designed a truly unique layout for the periodical: it unfolded into a single page measuring two feet by six feet. Contained on the page were both traditional photographic images and cutting-edge digital images, including a life-sized self-portrait.

Since then, April has worked for companies such as Esprit, Benetton, Sears, and Time-Warner. She also teaches at the Southern California Institute of Architecture.
