Hemlock Printers
Nicole’s parents, Aaron and Bonnie, founded the Los Angeles-based Paper Chase Press in 1976. Nicole went on to receive her BFA in photography from Bard College. She worked in the fields of art and publishing, and in 2008 opened a contemporary art space and publishing imprint called Eighth Veil with her partner Kane Austin. During their time at the helm of Eighth Veil, Nicole and Kane experienced first-hand how deeply the love of print resonated within the art world, and so when the opportunity arose for the pair to take over Nicole’s family’s printing company, she and Kane took the reins. Together they began its transformation into what it is today, an industry leader in bespoke printed media. During that time Nicole and her colleague Mathew Swenson launched Intelligence LA, a network of vetted freelance creatives, where she spearheaded its Hire A Designer division, pairing creatives with clients for print design. After nearly 15 years of leadership and growth at Paper Chase Press, including the launch of their e-commerce division, partnerships with dozens of brands and institutions, and the expansion of their offerings and capabilities, Paper Chase Press was acquired by Hemlock. Nicole continues to lead the LA-based brand on behalf of Hemlock.
