Cynthia Brumback has been in the monogram business for over a decade. Cynthia’s passion for monogramming stems from her upbringing as she explains in the introduction of the book. “Monogramming is second nature to me, having grown up in a family where it has always been a distinct part of our traditions.” 

With the arrival of her book, Cynthia has toured the United States sharing The Art of the Monogram. Beginning with a 6 city Lilly Pulitzer store book tour, Cynthia has done book signings and spoken to both intimate and large groups. Her entertaining presentation imparts fascinating information about the history of the monogram with humorous personal anecdotes.
