Judging from his new book, it seems Archie Boston has no qualms about making people a little uncomfortable.

His self-published tome, Fly in the Butter milk: Memoirs of an African American in Advertising, Design & Design Education, is a no-holds-barred, no-punches-pulled account of his life as an adman.

He recounts awkward moments with white colleagues, unruly drunks at award ceremonies and, of course, clients. He also shows his portfolio, which he describes as “Old School Kick-Ass.”
