Michael Kalish grew up in Atlanta, Ga., with a love of two things: art and baseball. While studying psychology and studio art at Kennesaw State University he continued to play baseball, but ultimately had to give it up after a back injury.
After college he began to act on his fascination with license plates. He began creating his own take on Americana by doing a series of flags and then the U.S. presidents. He then headed to New York where he worked to create a pop icon collection featuring sculptures of The Beatles, Jimi Hendrix, Audrey Hepburn, Charlie Chaplin, Jim Morrison and Marilyn Monroe as well as expanding his American anthology with the Statue of Liberty, Mt. Rushmore, the Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr. and of course, The Baseball Series.
