洛克威尔•肯特（RocKwell Kent，1882—1971） 20世纪美国最著名的版画家，他最重要的艺术成就包括《莎士比亚全集》、小说《白鲸》等经典文学的插画。此外，肯特还为著名的出版公司“兰登书屋”设计了徽章，尽管日后有所修改，但是自1928年公司创立以来使用至今 。肯特还是位作家、探险家，他曾经乘船去新开垦的缅因州和阿拉斯加一带旅行，创作了大量油画和版画，还撰写了一些有关航海生活的著作，并为这些著作绘制了精彩的插图。肯特的所有旅行文集，包括《航行》、《荒野集》、《北偏东》、《萨拉米娜》和《格陵兰日志》，在他去世之后都曾限量再版，这证明他独特的魅力持久不衰。 杨鹏，出生及成长于西安。先后在清华大学、明尼苏达大学接受建筑学教育，曾从事建筑设计。现任教于中国人民大学艺术学院，聚焦于现代建筑史研究，已出版多部现代建筑及传记译著。
