Barry Roseman is a graduate of both Occidental College and Art Center College of Design, and he later earned his M.F.A. degree in graphic design at Yale University. In the mid-1980’s, he attended the graphic design post-graduate program at the School of Design in Basel, Switzerland.
After a position in corporate identity development in the New York office of branding firm Siegel & Gale, he began a teaching career at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga and later at the Atlanta College of Art and the Savannah College of Art and Design (SCAD-Atlanta).
Roseman’s research interests include the design of transportation timetables—he has lectured on this topic at several design conferences in the U.S. as well as Europe. Most recently, he designed the book The 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre: A Photographic History by Karlos K. Hill, published by the OU Press.
