Arnold Zimmerman, also known as Arnie Zimmerman, is an American ceramic artist who was born December 13, 1954 in Poughkeepsie, New York. He received a bachelor's degree from the Kansas City Art Institute and a master’s degree from the New York State College of Ceramics at Alfred University.[1] He rose to prominence with large-scale carved vessels that resemble totem poles. About 1996, he started focusing on salt-fired porcelain figurines which he modeled, rather than carved. The latter are primarily tableaus of many figures engaging in sex or violence. In 2005, he received a Louis Comfort Tiffany Foundation Award. Zimmerman lives and works in Brooklyn, New York.

The Brooklyn Museum, The Contemporary Museum, Honolulu, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Nacional Museu do Azulejo (Portugal) and the Runnymede Sculpture Farm (Woodside, California) are among the public collections holding work by Arnold Zimmerman.
