Time Life is one of the world’s pre-eminent creators and direct marketers of unique music and video products, producing distinctive multi-media collections that evoke memories of yesterday and capture the spirit of today. Founded in 1961 as the book division of Time Inc., Time Life took its name from Time Inc.’s cornerstone magazines, Time and Life, but remained independent of both. By 1966, Time Life combined its book offerings with music collections and packaged them as a sturdy box set. Music and video collections now make up the core of company’s product offering. In 2003 Time Life was sold by Time, Inc. and as a result is no longer affiliated with that organisation. The company now operates as Direct Holdings Americas Inc., but still retains use of the Time Life brand. JMDM is regularly commissioned to produce design and creative artwork for a vast array of its packaged music and video collections.
