I just received word today that the logo I designed for the Port of Long Beach's Seaport Sustainability Symposium will be included in the upcoming LogoLounge 6 volume by Bill Gardner and Catharine Fishel, published by Rockport Publishers. This will be my seventh LogoLounge volume that my work has appeared with nearly 70 honored logos.

As quoted by the LogoLounge staff,

This was an incredibly competitive judging session with over 34,000 logos entered for consideration. The work has been chosen for the new book by an international panel of judges. This years panel included, Bart Crosby of Crosby Associates, Hans Hulsbosch of Hulsbosch, Jeannie Servaas of Saffron Brand Consultants Inc., Jessica Hische of Jessica Hische, Marius Ursache of Grapefruit, Sherwin Schwartzrock of Schwartzrock Graphic Arts, Silvio Giorgi of Latinbrand, and Tessa Westermeyer of Landor.

I am certainly proud of my inclusion in these volumes and am honored to be a part of it. Looks like I'll take a long lunch today!
