Biography
Born in Cambridge, England in 1942, Allen studied at the Central School of Art and Design in London.[1]
In 1973, Allen moved to the United States on the invitations of Clay Felker and Milton Glaser.[2] Glaser later said that they had found Allen while trying to "find an illustrator whose journalistic interest and talent would permit us to do unusual visual reportage".[3] Allen taught at the Parson's School of Design for more than 20 years.[3] In 1997, Allen became the Illustration Chair of the Maryland Institute College of Art, where he integrated professionalism into the artistry curriculum.[4]
Allen died in September 1998 of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.[5]
