Kohlbrenner, Howard
Howard Kohlbrenner (November 28, 1897 - February 8, 1986) was a Philadelphia-based artist and art director for several publications. He attended the Philadelphia Museum College of Art and Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts. After working as an accountant in his early 20s, presumably while also practicing his own artistic works, from 1929 until the early 1970s, Kohlbrenner served as the At Director for the Chilton Company's Automotive Publications, including Automotive Industries and Motor Age. He took on a similar role with other publications by McGraw-Hill (which seems to have bought out Chilton) as well, such as Food Engineering and Aircraft and Missiles. Kohlbrenner was also deeply involved with the Old York Road Historical Society, designing the organization's logo in 1936 and serving for a time as an editor of the Old York Road Historical Society Bulletin.
