The flag of Memphis, Tennessee, was designed by Albert Mallory III, then a student at the Memphis Academy of Arts,[1] and was formally adopted by the city commission in July 1963. The flag was updated in 1967 to its current form, when a new city seal design by Alfred Lewis Aydelott[2] was adopted by the city government, as it transitioned to a mayor-council form of government.
