Raised in the Boston area, Dale Stephanos has been a full-time professional illustrator for more than thirty years. His client list is extensive and includes magazines such as Rolling Stone, TIME, and Sports Illustrated; newspapers such as the Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, and the Village Voice; the U.S. Open; and many others.

Stephanos’ work has been featured in numerous exhibits, and in 2017, he opened his own gallery in Boston. He has been honored by the Society of Illustrators, Illustrators West, American Illustration, Communication Arts, and Lürzer's Archive’s 200 Best Illustrators Worldwide 2016.

When he’s not working on illustration assignments for magazines or painting portraits for private commissions, Stephanos teaches at both Suffolk University in Boston and Lyme Academy College of Fine Art in Connecticut.

He now resides in the wilds of southeastern Massachusetts with his family and a cat with no name. A U.S. postage stamp commission has been a lifelong dream for Stephanos. The 2025 Betty White issuance is his first project for the United States Postal Service.
