Spike Lee on His Collection of WWII Propaganda Posters Skip to content Spike Lee talks about his “Pvt Joe Louis Says...” poster by an unknown designer (1942) (all photos Hrag Vartanian/ Hyperallergic ) Spike Lee is a visionary director and beloved New York City icon, known for legendary films like Do The Right Thing (1989) and Malcolm X (1992), as well as his ever-present and effervescent courtside position at Knicks games.
