Background

Born June 24, 1926, in Vigliano Biellese, Italy's Piedmont textile region,[1] Brovarone demonstrated artistic talent at an early age. His later studies were interrupted by WWII, after which he worked for a time as a designer at a refrigerator company.

In 1949 Brovarone worked as a graphic designer job at an advertising firm in Buenos Aires, Argentina,[2] later working with AUTOAR (Automotores Argentinos). Brovarone returned to Italy to work with Piero Dusio of Cisitalia, who later introduced Brovarone to Battista "Pinin" Farina.[2] Brovarone joined noted coachbuilder Carrozzeria Pinin Farina in 1952, first serving as assistant stylist to Francesco Salomone and Franco Martinengo. He subsequently took on a design leadership role, initiated with the design of the Ferrari Superamerica II, presented at the 1960 Turin Auto Show.[2]

After his retirement from Pinifarina in 1988,[2] Brovarone served as a stylist with Stola.

gollark: What if you need to... quickly inspect your CPU die and don't need to use it afterward?
