Richard Bernstein (1939 - 2002) was an American graphic designer. Frank DiGiacomo notes that "for 15 years, beginning in 1972, Bernstein's signature artwork illustrated the monthly covers of Interview magazine, the celebrity chronicle of the social, fashion and art crowd that had met in Andy Warhol's Factory and the back room of Max's Kansas City in the 1960s and catalyzed in the sybaritic heat of Studio 54 in the late 1970s."
Loleatta Holloway covers
According to the original press bio that accompanied Loleatta Holloway's "Love Sensation", the paintings of on the album jackets of "Loleatta" (1979) and "Love Sensation", were done by artist/photographer Richard Bernstein "known for his unique covers on Andy Warhol's Interview Magazine". Bernstein's intention was reportedly to "bring out the softness, sensitivity and sexiness, inherent in Holloway".
