Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Charles John Kleibacker was an American fashion designer who earned the nickname Master of the Bias for the complex designs of his gowns for women, carefully cut from fabric at a diagonal to the weave. Kleibacker was born in Cullman, Alabama on November 20, 1921. His family were the proprietors of a department store in the municipality. He attended the University of Notre Dame, where he majored in journalism, and worked for a time as a reporter for a newspaper in Alabama. He attended New York University for his graduate studies.
