Raymond Loewy was a French-American industrial designer often called the 'father of industrial design,' who shaped the Coca-Cola fountain dispenser, the Lucky Strike pack, the Shell and Exxon logos, Studebaker cars, and interiors for NASA's Skylab and Air Force One. His father, Maximilian Loewy, was an Austrian Jew, giving Loewy documented Jewish ancestry (paternal). His streamlined aesthetic defined mid-twentieth-century American design.
