From NinWiki

Robert Sheridan (born October 11, 1979) is the art director for Nine Inch Nails and How To Destroy Angels. He attended Pratt Institute in New York for one year and has been working with Trent Reznor since 1999, after being hired because Reznor was impressed with his unofficial NIN fansite, "Above The Trees", which he created during high school. He has since been appointed as the art director for NIN, contributing photography, web design, album covers and packaging design, an alternate reality game, music videos, live tour visuals and two live concert films.

He was nominated for the 2008 Grammy award for "Best Boxed or Special Limited Edition Package" for his work on the Ghosts I-IV limited edition boxed set. In his work as art director for HTDA, he has contributed the HTDA logo, promotional photography, and merchandise design. He has also worked with Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross on the artwork and packaging design for The Social Network and The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo soundtracks.

He is also known for his own illustration work. Beginning in 2007, he has posted artwork and released limited edition signed and numbered prints on his Sketchblog and portfolio. As of 2013, he is also a member of How To Destroy Angels, contributing mainly as a visual rather than musical member. In concert, he contributes synthesizers, vocals and visual effects.
