USA Medium Design/Decorative Art Manufacturer Detrola Radio Alexander Girard American, 1907–1993• A preeminent figure in midcentury American design, Alexander Girard combined a vibrant color palette and folk influences with the sleek and functional work of Herman Miller and Charles and Ray Eames. Girard established a textile division at Herman Miller’s leading design firm and served as its director from the early 1950s through the 1970s, ultimately branching out into his own furniture and industrial design lines.
