Henry KoernerAmerican painter and designer, 1915 - 1991

Henry Koerner was born in Vienna and trained there as a graphic designer. He immigrated to the United States after Hitler annexed Austria in 1938 and found employment as a commercial artist in New York City. During World War II, Koerner designed posters for the Office of War Information and the Office of Strategic Services (OSS). At the war’s end, the OSS sent him to Germany to produce sketches during the Nuremburg Trials. After the war, Koerner taught at Chatham College and the Art Institute of Pittsburgh and painted over 60 covers for "Time" magazine, including portraits of John F. Kennedy, Nelson Rockefeller, and Maria Callas.
