Shepard Fairey

That can't POSSIBLY be his real name, can it?

Is this the guy who steals his themes, and even his basic layouts, from old Soviet-era Russian propaganda posters, or am I thinking of someone else?

I was just on the “Obey plagarist Shepard Fairey” web-site. This guy apparently steals from almost EVERYONE, not just old Russian propaganda posters.

Other works by this guy (and yes he commonly works in graffiti):

I don't know if he created this one (below) or if it is just a collage of his motifs from other posters:
