Mike Perry works in Brooklyn, New York making books, magazines, newspapers, clothing, drawings, paintings, illustrations and teaching whenever possible. His first book titled Hand Job published by Princeton Architectural Press hit the book shelves in 2006. His second book titled Over & Over was released fall 2008. He is currently working on two new books. In 2007, he started a magazine called Untitled which explores his current interests. The forth issue came out fall 2009.
He has worked with an impressive roster of clients such as New York Times Magazine, Dwell Magazine, Microsoft, Zune, Urban Outfitters, eMusic, and Zoo York. In 2004, he was chosen as one of Step Magazine's 30 under 30; in 2007, as a groundbreaking illustrator by Computer Arts Projects Magazine; and in 2008, he received Print Magazine's New Visual Artist award and the ADC Young Guns (6). Doodling away night and day, Perry creates new typefaces and sundry graphics that inevitably evolve into his new work, exercising the great belief that the generating of piles is the sincerest form of creative process. His work has been seen around the world including a recent solo show in London titled "The Place between Time and Space."
