Brief Bio:
Anne H. Berry is a writer, designer, and Associate Professor in the Department of Art and Design at Cleveland State University (CSU). Her research focuses on race and representation in design, and ethnic and racial disparities within the field of graphic design. She has been featured in Communication Arts magazine, Letterform Archive, and the recently published book Black, Brown + Latinx Design Educators: Conversations on Design and Race by Kelly Walters, and was interviewed for designer Maurice Cherry's award-winning podcast Revision Path. Her published writing includes "The Virtual Design Classroom" for Communication Arts magazine, "The Black Designer's Identity" for the inaugural issue of the Recognize anthology featuring commentary from Indigenous people and people of color, and the co-authored article "The Intersection of Electoral Politics and Design Education" for the international design research journal Message.

Berry and collaborator Sarah Edmands Martin are co-creators of the award-winning project Ongoing Matter: Democracy, Design, and the Mueller Report (OM) which was highlighted in the AIGA Eye on Design op-ed "Making Public Information Actually Accessible to the Public is the Responsibility of Designers." Berry is also a 2018 Design Incubation Fellow and managing editor of The Black Experience in Design: Identity, Expression, and Reflection which was published in February 2022 and included in Fast Company's "Best Design Books of 2022" and the 2022 Non-Obvious Book Awards Long List.
