Alan Peckolick (born 1940 in Bronx, NY) is an American graphic designer, artist, and photographer. Peckolick is known for the typographic forms he created. His fascination for the graphic letter form underpins much of his work as he draws much of his inspiration from historic signage and lettering. His projects have included logo design and corporate identity for Revlon and New York University (typographic logo). He has designed annual reports for AT&T, General Motors, Bell South and Pfizer. Internationally he has worked for Society General (France), Grupo Industrial Alfa (Mexico), Mercedes-Benz (Germany), Sony (Japan). Upon graduating from Pratt Institute in 1964, Peckolick went to work as an assistant to designer Herb Lubalin. In 1968 he opened his own design office. In 1972 he joined Lubalin, Smith & Carnase; several years later the company was reorganized and renamed Lubalin Peckolick Associates. Peckolick's work has earned him over 500 design awards worldwide, including honorary membership in the art director's club of Bergen, Norway. His work has been featured in design journals and books. From 1985, Peckolick has been included in every edition of "Who's Who in America" and since 1990 in every edition of "Who's Who in Graphic Design". In 2008, he was chosen as one of ten designers to be included in China's first survey of international graphic design. His poster work is in the permanent collection of the Gutenberg Museum in Mainz, Germany. Apart from lecturing on graphic design in Hamburg, Stuttgart, Helsinki, Tokyo, London and Bergen, he regularly lectures at Parsons The New School for Design. In 2002, Peckolick was invited to donate his archive to New York University's Fales Collection, housed in the Bobst Library.
