Paula Scher is an American graphic designer and artist, born 1948, Washington DC. For more than three decades Paula Scher has been at the forefront of graphic design. Iconic, smart and unabashedly populist, her images have entered into the American vernacular.
Scher has developed identity and branding systems, promotional materials, environmental graphics, packaging and publication designs for a broad range of clients that includes The New York Times Magazine, Perry Ellis, Bloomberg, Target, Coca-Cola, Tiffany & Co., the Metropolitan Opera and a long list of others with an obvious pattern of clients in art and creative institutions. Her graphic identities for Citibank and Tiffany & Co. have become case studies for the contemporary regeneration of classic American brands.
In 1998 Scher was named to the Art Directors Hall of Fame and has received hundreds of industry honors and awards over the course of her career.
