Chrysler designer to talk Tuesday at UM-Flint Kiva
FLINT - Ralph Gilles, designer of the Chrysler 300C sedan, will talk about auto design at noon Tuesday in the Kiva at the University of Michigan-Flint.
The talk is free and open to the public.
Gilles, vice president of Jeep and truck design at the Chrysler Group, was invited to meet with communications and art students at UM-Flint, and the public relations class coordinating the visit decided to add a public event to his visit.
Gilles was born in New York, N.Y., and grew up in Montreal. He attended the Center for Creative Studies in Detroit and later received an executive master's of business administration degree from Michigan State University.
He joined Chrysler in 1991 and was director of the Dodge Magnum, Chrysler 300C and Charger projects and the Dodge M80 concept vehicle.
The Kiva is in UM-Flint's University Center building.
