Chuck Sperry is an American artist born in Dayton, Ohio, on February 5, 1962. He is widely recognized for his mastery of screen printing and his significant contributions to the rock poster movement. Raised by parents who were both artists, Chuck Sperry drew early inspiration from his father, who was an apprentice to sculptor Robert Koepnik, and his mother, a regional advertising executive. He pursued a dual major in art and journalism at the University of Missouri, where he developed his skills as an editorial cartoonist before moving to New York City and eventually settling in San Francisco.

The artistic style of Chuck Sperry is characterized by vibrant, psychedelic aesthetics and intricate compositions that often draw upon classical and mythological themes. Beginning in 2010, his work frequently featured female muses from Greek mythology, blending detailed floral patterns with bold, saturated colors. His craftsmanship involves a meticulous hand-printing process where each color is applied individually, often on paper or oak panels. Throughout his career, he has designed iconic posters for legendary bands such as Pearl Jam, Widespread Panic, and The Rolling Stones.

Beyond the music industry, Chuck Sperry is known for his political protest art and his commitment to social issues, including work for the Women's March and various equality movements. He operates Hangar 18, a silkscreen print studio located in Oakland, California. His artwork has been exhibited internationally and is held in prestigious permanent collections, including the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
