Paul Hogarth, OBE (christened Arthur Paul Hoggarth) (October 4, 1917 – 27 December 2001) was an English artist and illustrator. He is best known to a wider audience for the series of cover drawings that he prepared in the 1980s for the Penguin edition of Graham Greene's books.
Born Arthur Paul Hoggarth in Kendal, Cumbria, he and his family moved to Manchester in 1923 where he attended the Manchester School Of Art from 1934 to 1936 where he became involved in the Artists' International Association and the Communist Party of Great Britain. After 1936 he attended St Martins College, London and fought in the Spanish Civil War in the International Brigade.
Paul Hogarth, who died in December 2001, was one of the most distinguished painters of our times with a unique talent for illustration and reportage which was allied to his love of travel. This led him to produce drawings and watercolours recording events and places all over the world. As an illustrator he studied under James Boswell (artist) and worked with a number of eminent authors including Robert Graves, Graham Greene, Brendan Behan, Lawrence Durrell, and William Golding. His work can be seen on the cover of John Wyndham's 'The Midwich Cuckoos' (1964, Penguin [1] ). He was elected an associate member of the Royal Academy in 1974, a full member in 1984 and was awarded the OBE in 1989. His work is held in collections worldwide, he exhibited regularly in the Francis Kyle Gallery in London and his lithographs are available from Contemporary Art Holdings, Cirencester.
At the time of his death, Paul Hogarth had been married to actress Diana Hogarth (stage name Diana Robson) for 12 years.
