Paul Colin (Nancy 1892–1985) was a French poster designer and at one time, briefly, the lover of Josephine Baker. The Art Deco poster he designed to publicize her troupe's "La Revue Nègre" launched his career in graphic design. During his career he produced about a thousand posters and hundreds of stage sets. His illustrations graced her memoirs, published in 1927 (she was twenty-one).
