Does anyone know anything about the artist Alan Fletcher? Do you know if any of his work was influenced by America and how it influenced him?

Alan Fletcher (born 30 March 1957 in Perth, Western Australia) is an Australian actor, best known today for his role as Dr. Karl Kennedy in long-running soap opera Neighbours. Alan Fletcher is also in a band called Waiting Room with other members including Tommy Rando and Chris Hawker. While Fletcher is the lead singer, the other members sing lead on a few songs. They toured the UK during May and June of 2005, and again in November 2005, with the most recent tour in May 2006. With a handful of their own songs they incorporate a selection of cover versions into their set, including a medley which starts as Queen's Bohemian Rhapsody, and ends as The Killers' Mr. Brightside. Playing to crowds who are almost entirely Neighbours fans and students who regularly watch the show twice a day, Fletcher also covers Smokie's "Living Next Door to Alice", substituting Alice, for "Susan", his on-screen ex-wife (Jackie Woodburne). During a December 1st show at Strathclyde Student Union, Glasgow, he shocked fans by revealing a tatoo of Helen Daniels on his right buttock Alan also played the role of a run-down, dishonest boxer working in Jim's garage on Neighbours before leaving the show and then coming back as Dr Karl. His array of tight unco-ordinated clothing on the set of neighbours give the impression that his character does not know his own age which, is well into his 40's
In 2005, Fletcher starred as Henry Higgins in a production of My Fair Lady at the Melbourne Comedy Theatre.
Fletcher's wife is Network Ten Melbourne newsreader Jennifer Hansen and they have two children, Veronica and Tom.

Fletcher teamed up with American Bob Gill to form Fletcher/Forbes/Gill, a modern graphic design consultant company. They produced the book Graphic Design: A Visual Comparison, including work by American and British designers.
See if you can find that book. I am not sure of the year publsihed but I think it was in the early 60's.
