Following His Own Track
John D.L. Johnson was preparing for a career in architecture and history, when a hobby steered him toward printing.
"My biggest accomplishments there were designing the remodel of an old building into a modern new print shop, moving the print shop from one building to another, moving from prepress to digital, and establishing the bulk mail operation," Johnson reflects.
He also taught graphic art classes, began attending conferences such as IPMA, ACUP, Graph Expo and the Gutenberg Festival, joined IPMA and became a certified graphic communications manager (CGCM). On top of his professional responsibilities, Johnson took up some course work at Chico State, earning his master's degree in business administration in 1999.
