George Kovacs (1926–2007) was an Austrian-born lighting designer and entrepreneur who revolutionized modern, avant-garde lighting in the United States. In 1954, he opened a Manhattan gallery to import contemporary European designs, eventually building an iconic brand celebrated for introducing the halogen torchiere to the American market.
