About Gene Mackles:
“I often envision my surroundings as paintings. Using paint as
light, I strive to create striking pieces which resonate by evocatively
capturing a time, place, memory and feeling.”
As senior designer at WGBH, Gene Mackles collaborated on programs such
as NOVA, Evening at Pops, Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego? Zoom,
and numerous others. He was also responsible for WGBH’s on-air
image including station breaks, print advertising and fund raising
elements. In addition, he was the lead designer for children’s
program promotion for PBS, and an original developer of their Ready to
Learn service.
More recently he has designed and produced work for NBC Sports, HGTV,
The Food Network, The History Channel and The Cleveland Orchestra among
others. He has been nominated for 4 Emmys (one for music), and
received Gold awards from The Broadcast Designers Association, Promax,
The Advertising Club of Boston (Hatch) and The Art Directors Club of
Boston. His work has also appeared in AIGA (American Institute of
Graphic Arts) annuals, as well as Print magazine and Communication
Arts. He is a member of the Newton Art Association, the Concord Art
Association and is listed in Who’s Who in America.
A graduate of Dartmouth College, he also attended The Juilliard School
of Music, studied graphic design with Milton Glaser at The School of
Visual Arts in New York City, and served on the faculty of the School
of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. He resides in Auburndale with his
