I need to research several well known contemporary typographers. And by typographers, I mean artists who use typography, not necessarily those who create it. If anyone could help it would really be appreciated. Thanks!

"Narrow" your definition of "artist," say the medium (or which message).
The “Bit.Fall” by Julius Popp is certainly one of the best works I have seen lately, indeed a excellent mesh of creativity and engineering.
Just a few well known book designers who cross my mind:
Irma Boom
Markus Dreßen
Friedrich Forssman
Franz Greno …
[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walter_Hamady|Walter Hamady]] must be considered.
Take a look at the top 10 people they have listed on lettercult.com - should find what you're looking for there, or atleast it could be a start to finding others you may like to research
