Bruce A. Lehman currently practices law in Washington, D.C. and Sarasota Florida. He advises clients on all aspects of intellectual property law, including prosecution, litigation and policy, both domestically and internationally. Concurrently, Mr. Lehman is the chairman of the International Intellectual Property Institute (IIPI), a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization, based in Washington, D.C. The Institute promotes the creation of modern intellectual property systems and the use of intellectual property rights as a mechanism for investment, technology transfer and the creation of wealth in all countries of the world.

From August 1993 through December 1998 Mr. Lehman served as Assistant Secretary of Commerce and U.S. Commissioner of Patents and Trademarks. As the Clinton administration’s primary representative for intellectual property rights protection, he was a key player on these issues, both domestically and internationally. At the request of the president, he served concurrently in the fall of 1997 as acting chairman of the National Endowment for the Humanities, which fosters and recognizes the work of America’s artistic and creative community.

On February 7, 2006, Mr. Lehman was honored as one of 23 initial inductees to the newly created International IP Hall of fame, a project sponsored by the London-based, Intellectual Property Asset Management magazine. He is one of ten living members of the Hall of Fame which includes historic figures such as Thomas Jefferson and Victor Hugo.

In 1994 the National Law Journal named Mr. Lehman its “Lawyer of the Year.” In 1997 public-policy magazine National Journal named him as one of the 100 most influential men and women in Washington, noting, “In today’s Information Age, the issue of intellectual property rights is no longer an arcane concern, but a vital part of U.S. trade policy. Since taking over his current posts in 1993, Lehman has been the Clinton Administration’s outspoken voice on such matters here and abroad.”

Serving as the leader of the U.S. delegation to WIPO’s December 1996 Diplomatic Conference on Certain Copyright and Neighboring Rights Questions, Mr. Lehman concluded negotiations that resulted in the adoption of two treaties: the WIPO Copyright Treaty and the WIPO Performances and Phonograms Treaty; by updating international copyright law for the digital age, the treaties aim to facilitate the growth of online digital commerce over the Internet. Mr. Lehman’s guidance on the development of the intellectual property provisions of the Uruguay Round Agreement, now known as TRIPS (Trade Related Aspects of Intellectual Property), has enabled American creators and inventors to more easily protect their creations from piracy throughout the world.

Mr. Lehman also chaired the Working Group on Intellectual Property Rights of the National Information Infrastructure Task Force. In September 1995 the Working Group released Intellectual Property and the National copyright protection of intellectual property in the networked environment of the information superhighway. These recommendations served as the basis for the WIPO treaties and the Digital Millennium Copyright Act.

For 10 years prior to joining the Clinton administration, Mr. Lehman was a partner in the Washington, D.C., law firm of Swidler & Berlin. There he represented individuals, companies and trade associations in the areas of intellectual property rights. His clients were drawn from the motion picture, telecommunications, pharmaceutical, computer software and broadcasting industries.

Prior to entering private practice, Mr. Lehman worked for nine years in the U.S. House of Representatives as counsel to the Committee on the Judiciary and chief counsel to the Subcommittee on Courts, Civil Liberties, and the Administration of Justice. He was the Committee’s principal legal adviser in the drafting of the 1976 Copyright Act, the 1980 Computer Software Amendments and the 1982 Amendments to the Patent Laws.

On February 7, 2006, Mr. Lehman was honored as one of 23 initial inductees to the newly created International IP Hall of fame, a project sponsored by the London-based, Intellectual Property Asset Management Magazine.

Mr. Lehman is holds both a B.S. and a J.D. degree from the University of Wisconsin, Madison.

Bio: Keith Ferris

Born in 1929, the son of a career Air Force Officer, Keith Ferris grew up with military aviation. He attended Texas A&M majoring in Aeronautical Engineering, George Washington University and Corcoran School of Art in Washington, DC. He began his art career as a civilian in Air Force Publications in 1947 and, after five years with St Louis art studio Cassell, Watkins Paul, Ferris became a freelance artist in the New York area in 1956 and a member of the Society of Illustrators in 1960.

His art has served the advertising, editorial, public relations, and historical documentation needs of the aerospace industry, publications, the military services, and air and space museums for 62 years.

His work has been published in advertising, magazines, books, posters, calendars and industry and military publications throughout his career. Over 40 Ferris paintings have been published in fine art print form by The Greenwich Workshop, Inc. and by Keith Ferris Galleries.

Ferris created the 25 foot high by 75 foot wide mural in oil “Fortresses Under Fire” in the World War II Gallery of the National Air and Space Museum of the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, DC, and the 20 foot by 75 foot Evolution of Jet Aviation mural in the museum’s Jet Aviation Gallery.

Keith Ferris is a Life Member of the Society of Illustrators and a recipient of SI’s Dean Cornwell Recognition Award for his 18 years on the SI Board of Directors as Government Services Committee Chairman responsible for the Society’s Air Force Art Program, the Coast Guard Illustration Program and the Coast Guard Bicentennial Art Project. He served for two years as the Society’s Executive Vice President.

Having participated in the United States Air Force Art Program for over 48 years, Ferris knowledge of aviation has been greatly enhanced by having flown more than 300 hours in jet fighter aircraft. He has flown in most all jet aircraft types in the Air Force inventory while documenting the Air Force mission with art. There are 60 major Ferris paintings in the Air Force Art Collection.

Ferris deployed across the Pacific to South East Asia as a civilian back-seater with the first squadron of F-4E Phantoms in 1968 where he participated in missions of the F-4E, the F-105F and the B-52D. He has spent a total of eight weeks over a 25-year period flying with the USAF Fighter Weapons Schools, experiencing the employment of aircraft ranging from the F-100 to the F-15 and F-16. He holds five United States patents for deceptive aircraft paint systems.

Keith Ferris is a founder and past president of the American Society of Aviation Artists. This organization is Dedicated to the Pursuit of Excellence and Public Appreciation of Aerospace Art.

A lifelong student of perspective and spatial relationships, Ferris utilizes the science of perspective projection by descriptive geometry to achieve the three dimensional optical effects evident in his art.

Serving regularly on the faculty of the ASAA sponsored annual Aviation Art Forums, he teaches the basics of aviation art, drawing, painting, composition, light and reflected light so important in aviation art. ASAA Forum subjects also include business practices, contracts and copyright issues. Ferris is dedicated to eliminating misunderstanding or misuse by anyone of the rights of the creator of copyrightable material.

In 1995 Ferris received an honorary doctorate of Humane Letters from Daniel Webster College in Nashua, NH for his years of documenting aviation history through art. He is a member of the Aviation Week & Space Technology Laureate Hall of Fame in the Smithsonian Institution’s National Air & Space Museum and in 2004, Ferris was the recipient of AW&ST’s Laureate Award for Lifetime Achievement.

Keith Ferris is proud to represent the American Society of Aviation Artists on the board of the American Society of Illustrators Partnership.

Bio: Nick Anderson

Nick Anderson joined The Houston Chronicle as editorial cartoonist in February of 2006. Anderson’s philosophy: “An editorial cartoonist, fundamentally, should be anti-establishment. No matter which party is running the government, it is the essence of satire to question authority.” His loose, idiosyncratic style carries with it an unconventional message that has broad appeal.

In 2005, Anderson was awarded the Pulitzer Prize for Editorial Cartooning. The judges complimented his “unusual graphic style that produced extraordinarily thoughtful and powerful messages.” He takes great care and effort with those messages. “I think Nick deserved this [award] for a long time,” says Alan Shearer, editorial director of The Washington Post Writers Group, which distributes Anderson’s cartoons.

In fact, Anderson has pioneered a method of coloring his cartoons. Using an advanced computer program, he creates digital paintings characterized by subtle textures and striking images. Because of his innovative use of the program, its manufacturer, Corel Corporation, has designated Anderson a “Painter Master.”

Anderson majored in political science at Ohio State University and was editorial cartoonist for the school’s newspaper, The Lantern. In 1989, he won the Charles M. Schulz Award for best college cartoonist. He interned one summer at The Louisville Courier-Journal, which immediately recognized his talent. After his graduation from OSU, the newspaper created a position for him as an associate editorial cartoonist and illustrator. Anderson was promoted to chief editorial cartoonist in 1995 and was syndicated by the Writers Group a year later. After 15 years with the Courier-Journal, in 2006 Anderson accepted a position at the Houston Chronicle.

Anderson grew up in Toledo, Ohio, in a family that encouraged independent thinking in politics. His father, a scientist, didn’t like the mathematical odds of his son becoming a cartoonist, but at age 15 Anderson started drawing cartoons for his high school newspaper and immediately knew his calling. “I figured the chances of being an editorial cartoonist were pretty slim, but I didn’t want to go to my deathbed without trying,” he said.

In addition to the Pulitzer, Anderson earned the Sigma Delta Chi award in 2000, the 1999 Fischetti Award, and first-place honors for editorial cartooning in the Best of Gannett Awards in 1996, 1997 and 1999. Anderson’s cartoons have been published in Newsweek, The New York Times, The Washington Post, USA Today, the Chicago Tribune and other papers.

In his spare time, Anderson enjoys mountain biking, cycling, water skiing and rollerblading. In 1988 he cycled across the country from Oregon to Massachusetts. He lives in Houston with his wife, Cecilia Baylon, and his sons, Colton and Travis, whose names Anderson hides in each of his cartoons.

Bio: Brad Holland

Brad Holland is one of the most influential illustrators of the 20th Century. The New York Times, in nominating him for a Pulitzer Prize, wrote that his work goes “beyond the moment to illuminate a general condition universal in space and time. The images are sometimes brutal, but the feeling is almost always compassionate.” The Washington Post has called him “an undisputed star of American Illustration,” and the editors of RSVP, the artists’ directory, voted him “the one artist, who in our opinion, has had the single greatest impact on the illustration field during the last twenty five years.” Writing in Print magazine, critic Steven Heller has written, “as [Jackson] Pollock redefined plastic art, Holland has radically changed the perception of illustration.”

Holland’s work has been exhibited in the Musee des Arts Decoratifs, Paris; the U.S. Library of Congress; the Museum of American Illustration; the Mikkeli Art Museum in Mikkeli, Finland; the Musée des Beaux-Arts, Clermont-Ferrand, France. His work is included in the permanent collection of the Library of Congress, the National Portrait Gallery as well as corporate and private collections. Holland’s work has appeared in nearly every major U.S. and many international publications, and feature films. He has received the gold medals of the New York Art Director’s Club, the Society of Publication Designers, the Society of Illustrators, and the Society’s prestigious Hamilton King Award. Holland is a member of the Society of Illustrators’ Hall of Fame and the Alliance Graphique Internationale.

Holland’s writings have appeared in diverse publications. The German magazine Jitter published Express Yourself, It’s Later Than You Think, a satire of the art business (first published in the Atlantic Monthly); Holland’s essay Shape and Content was published as the introduction to Illustration Now! (Taschen Books); Communication Arts published License to Infringe and First Things About Secondary Rights appeared in the Columbia Journal of Law & the Arts.

In recent years Brad Holland has emerged as the seminal voice illuminating the complex and shifting business landscape for illustrators and their diminishing control over their copyrights and businesses. He is one of the founders of the Illustrators’ Partnership of America (IPA), the first organization in the history of American visual authorship to seek to implement a rational collective rights clearance administration for illustrators’ copyrights.

In 1999, IPA’s founders created the first National Illustrators’ Conference, proposed the creation of a visual arts collecting society, founded the IPA, and initiated a Reprographics Coalition to unite 12 American illustration organizations to establish accountability for illustrators’ royalties. In 2002, Brad Holland and IPA Board member Cynthia Turner were invited to represent creators at The 100th American Assembly: “Art, Technology, and Intellectual Property” at Arden House in Harriman, New York. Their subsequent report first alerted illustrators to the goals of the Free Culture movement.

In 2005, Holland and Turner warned that the U.S. Copyright Office Orphan Works Study might portend a radical change in U.S. copyright law. Forty-two organizations and 1,600 individual artists signed Holland and Turner’s submission to the Copyright Office, urging the government to maintain existing copyright protections. Holland and Turner also proposed a visual art collecting society to the Copyright Office as a hedge against orphaned work.

Brad Holland participated in the Copyright Office Orphan Works Roundtables, the webcast Washington College of Law Orphan Works Debate, and testified against the Orphan Works Act before both the U.S. House of Representatives and Senate Intellectual Property subcommittees. Holland gave interviews with National Public Radio, Chicago Tribune, National Law Journal, Chronicle of Higher Education and Bureau of National Affairs. Holland’s weekly mass e-mail “Orphan Works Updates,” were widely posted on the websites of creators’ organizations. IPA’s Press Release, “Amendment May Orphan Creative Artists,” was distributed by the Associated Press and published by Forbes.com, PR Newswire, United Business Media, the Internet Herald and television station websites. The Progress & Freedom Foundation Center for Study of Digital Property selected the IPA Orphan Works Resource Page to link to its Copyright Resource Index.

Brad serves as Co-Chair of American Society of Illustrators Partnership, the formalized non-profit incorporation by member organizations of the Illustrators’ Partnership Reprographics Coalition.
