Stanley Donwood is a pseudonym of Dan Rickwood, an artist and writer best known for his album art and web site work for the band Radiohead. He is the author of the short pieces "Chip Shop" and "New Job" found in Radiohead's "Airbag/How Am I Driving?" EP. In spite of having won one Grammy award (2001, Best Recording Package, for the limited edition of Amnesiac with Thom Yorke) and having written one novel, Catacombs of Terror, he manages to remain very, very mysterious.
