Pantone Founder graduate of Hofstra University


Just found out today in my graphic design 2 class that the founder of Pantone, Lawrence Herbert was a graduate of Hofstra University. He graduated with a double major in biology and chemistry. His plan was to go on to medical school, but in 1956 he began working for Pantone on a part-time basis and became so intrigued with his work that he scrapped his idea of pursuing his studies as a physician.
