The Pearly Kings is a creative collective founded by Thomas Nicholas with an ever expanding roster of members that include Ben Nicholas, Andrew Zeiter, Amir Brann and Emile Bokaer. Regardless of the medium, what we are interested in is the tangible realization of ideas. We have created magazines, films, projections, photography, dance installations and identities. If you are interested in any type of collaboration we would love to hear about it.
Thomas Nicholas hoped to have a career as a ninja, baseball catcher, pilot, hockey player, and jazz musician but only managed to go pro as a dancer, which he did for seven years with the Joffrey Ballet of Chicago. He then went on to found The New Heroes magazine. He currently works as a senior designer at Y&R Chicago.
