    • The Books of 60 Minutes

      How does an artist break down a complex news report into one, simple image? Learn from graphic designer Bob Corujo, whose creativity was put to the task each week at 60 Minutes.

      Since 1980, Bob designed what’s known at 60 Minutes as the “book,” a magazine-style image that sits behind the correspondent and helps introduce viewers to a 60 Minutes story.

      On June 30, 2016, after 35 years at 60 Minutes, Bob Corujo retired.

      He’s created more than 3,000 “books” -- it’s not only his life’s work but also an illustrated history of some of the most important news events in the last 35 years.

      Each one of Bob’s books flickers on television for less than a minute.

      But they live on -- in frames lining the hallways of 60 Minutes. It’s a gallery of stories past. And producers collect the books that carry their names.

      Longtime 60 Minutes producer Robert G. Anderson has produced more than 150 stories for 60 Minutes and every book is on his office wall -- including this one.

      As the graphic artist for a news show, Bob takes the “first artistic look at history,” said 60 Minutes executive producer Jeff Fager. “And there’s meaning to it. And a power to it.”

      When Morley Safer was asked what Bob’s work meant to the broadcast, he said, “It sets a very high bar to the stories it introduces. And I’m serious about that.”

      For a report called “Frozen Assets,” Bob took a literal approach.

      He took a dollar bill, put it in water and froze it overnight. The next day, he chipped away at the ice until Washington’s face peered through.

      “Frozen Assets” aired on January 13, 2002.

      “I like simple,” Bob says, “because too much embellishment sometimes, you know, you get lost in the sauce.”

      Getting a point across clearly and simply is something Bob learned from Don Hewitt, the creator of 60 Minutes.

      Simplicity in storytelling is part of 60 Minutes’ makeup. “There’s not a lot of bells and whistles around this broadcast,” said executive producer Jeff Fager. “And Bobby’s part of that.”
