Rebeca Méndez

Rebeca Méndez (June 8, 1962; Mexico City) is a Mexican-American artist and graphic designer. She is a professor at UCLA Design Media Arts in Los Angeles, California, and since July 2020 is chair of the department, as well as the founder and director of the Counterforce Lab. She has won the Cooper-Hewitt National Design Award in Communication Design in 2012, the AIGA Medal in 2017, and induction to the One Club Hall of Fame in 2017. Rebeca is the only woman ever to have received all three of these awards, while Bob Greenberg from R/GA is the only man to have received all of them.

Margaret Andersen, in the biography she wrote when Méndez was awarded the AIGA Medal, notes that Méndez has worked across various cultural and professional domains. Provided by Wikipedia
