Joe Iannarino
It was Sunday, February 9, 1964, The Ed Sullivan Show. “Ladies and gentlemen, The Beatles. Let's bring them on.” They played: All My Loving “Close your eyes and I’ll kiss you, tomorrow I’ll miss you, remember I’ll always be true.” It was and remains (to Joe that is) the most important event in the history of rock music. That was over forty years ago and is really where his interest in art, music and creativity began. He was 10 years old and his mother bought him his first guitar. After graduating from Ohio University with a BA in English in 1977, Joe became a copy writer for an advertising agency in German Village called Adgraphix. Since then, he had a family, and for a brief two years became the Public Relations/ Marketing director for a major Downtown Columbus hotel. He then returned to the graphic design and advertising business where he remains to this day. The Beatles continue to inspire him to produce superior creative that rises above the ordinary and delivers a message that is clear, effective and meaningful to the beholder. Joe is usually the first contact for new business at IDC.
