The following statement served as my blurb for the years between my graduation from NC State and the present time. I currently work at NC State University Communications as a temporary employee:
Robert Ruehlman was a senior designer at Green Dragon Office in Los Angeles, a design collective under the direction of Lorraine Wild, focusing on collaborations with architects, artists, curators, photographers, and publishers in the U.S. and abroad. Projects include books designed for the The Whitney Museum of American Art in New York, Los Angeles Museum of Contemporary Art, UCLA Hammer Museum, Wexner Center for the Arts, San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, The Canadian Centre for Architecture, and the Gagosian Gallery.
In 2003, his work with Lorraine Wild Design was included in the National Design Triennial exhibition at the Smithsonian / Cooper Hewitt National Design Museum. Six of his books have been chosen for the American Institute of Graphic Arts 50 Best Books of the Year since 2002. He received a ARLIS/NA George Wittenborn Memorial Award for The Art of Richard Tuttle in 2004. His work has also been included in the California Design Biennial at the Pasadena Museum of California Art in 2005.
His work has been published in the Type Directors Club Typography 26, Print Regional Design Annual 2006, the Adobe Proxy Interactive Design Magazine, and has been praised by critics in The New York Times, The San Francisco Chronicle, and The Los Angeles Times Book Review.
Ruehlman received a Bachelor of Science in Graphic Design from the University of Cincinnati College of Design, Architecture, Art, and Planning in 1999, and a Master of Graphic Design from North Carolina State University in 2009.
