Matthew Doll is a painter and graphic designer, and the Program Director of the Gordon IN Orvieto semester program, where his Disegno/Drawing course serves as the cornerstone of the curriculum. Previously Doll taught drawing at the Bezalel Academy of Arts and Design in Jerusalem for six years. Doll is a graduate of the Rhode Island School of Design, where he studied on RISD’s European Honors Program in Rome. He studied in Jerusalem on a Fulbright Fellowship and earned an MFA from the Cranbrook Academy of Art. He taught drawing, painting, and design at Gordon College from 2001–2002. During his years in Jerusalem, Doll worked as a graphic designer for many of the international organizations and ministries that serve the diverse population of Israel and the West Bank.
