Jon Van Zyle (b.1942). He is artist Daniel van Zyle's twin brother.

The artist believes that love of out-of-doors is what motivates dog sledders.  Art is Van Zyle's life, and Alaska -- all of Alaska -- has been his inspiration.  Van Zyle has twice completed the 1049 miles of the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race between Anchorage and Nome.  From these adventures, he has created the yearly Iditarod poster series commemorating the race and his involvement.  In 1979 he was made official Iditarod artist, a title he still holds today.
