Typophile

Seattle Typophiles?

Thomas Phinney

I’m thinking of organizing some occasional typographic social activities of some sort here in Seattle. I’m wanting to figure out if there are Seattle Typophiles I don’t already know. Or for that matter that I know, but didn’t realize lived in the Seattle area. Of course there’s me, and Si. But I’m sure there must be more of you out there....

Note: I would also welcome contact info for type geeks not on the list.
Other typographic folks I know in the area include the rest of the Microsoft Typography team, a few typographic folks from Adobe Seattle, the gentlemen from Linguist’s Software (international fonts), John D Berry (writer and typographer), Mamoun Sakkal (Arabic type designer), and Ole Sorenson (local designer and Meetup organizer).

Cheers,

T

Myself and a few other students I know would be interested, although we really wouldn’t contribute anything that the rest of you don’t already know.

I wish there were a similar crowd here in the Washington DC area. I think only Bill Berkson and I are near here though. He being the Classic and me being the Comic, perhaps we could found a comic book series based on classic type faces :-)
