Robinson (who invented the “me generation” with Clairol); Hal Riney (who helped President Reagan get re-elected); and George Lois (who saved MTV and launched Tommy Hilfiger overnight).
Directed by Doug Pray, Art & Copy captures the creative energy and passion behind the iconic campaigns that have had a profound impact on American culture.
