The printing industry lost one of its greatest stewards. Dr. Harvey R. Levenson, age 83, of Pismo Beach, California, has died. A longtime educator, author, consultant, speaker, and industry expert witness, Harvey served as professor emeritus and past head of the Graphic Communication Department at Cal Poly University in San Luis Obispo, California. Born and raised in Brooklyn, he retired from Cal Poly after a 30-year tenure there — the longest ongoing tenure of a department head or chair in the history of the university.
Levenson simultaneously directed the Graphic Communication Institute (GrCI) while at Cal Poly. The Institute focuses on industry research, testing, product evaluations, consulting, training, seminars, workshops, conferences, and publishing.
