	Stuart Glass

	Stuart Glass is President and Chief Creative Officer of Stuart Glass Design Group, a cutting-edge New York based strategic design and brand strategy consultancy. He is a recognized expert in his field with twenty years of experience.

	From 1988-1990, Stuart Glass served as the first Director of Environmental Design* at Lippincott-Mercer, one of the world's premier identity and brand strategy design consultancies. As Director of Environmental Design, he helped build an Environmental Branding Department that extended the range and integrated Lippincott's corporate/product identity, consumer packaging and marketing communications expertise. Clients included national and international consumer, retail, banking and oil companies.

	In 1984 Stuart was invited to join Landor Associates, a major international player in the branding and strategic design arena to help form their new Strategic Retail Group. He was promoted to Creative Director (1985-1988) after serving as the first Director of Architecture & Environmental Design (1984-1985). Stuart was a creative force responsible for orchestrating Landor strategic retail design, marketing communications and strategic design projects on four continents. Among his accomplishments, Stuart's design leadership in the creation of the winning design for an international design competition won Landor the Alfred Dunhill account and the distinction of designing the flagship store in London, the prototype of all Alfred Dunhill stores worldwide.

	Prior to working at Landor, Stuart achieved a number of distinctions in the fields of design and technology: as Stuart Glass Design Group's founder and principal strategic designer, he won national recognition as a winner of two S.M.Hexter National Design Awards. During his thesis year of college, Stuart took a leave of absence to begin work on a technology patent that would prove to be pioneering in the fields of "Telepresence", "Virtual Reality" and "3D/HDTV" technology. In 1982 he was awarded U.S. Patent 4,310,849 for his stereoscopic display system and headset. The high-definition stereoscopic fiber optic headset projects the image data directly onto the retinas of the eyes (without a screen) thereby simulating visual reality and the true sense of ‘being there' in the viewer's mind. This unique fiber optic man-machine interface can still be considered cutting-edge by today's standards. His invention was incorporated into a number of experimental Department of Defense projects including virtual remote piloting, remote reconnaissance aircraft, flight simulation and other advanced systems.

	Stuart Glass began his college education as a graphic arts and physics (dual) major at the CCNY division, City University of New York before transferring into the CCNY School of Architecture. His interest in both design and technology began early and has typified his life's work: at age 17 as a contestant in the "Westinghouse Science Talent Search" his project was sponsored by Bell Laboratories. At age 9 he was one of the youngest FCC licensed Amateur Radio Operators.
