Thinking about type designers

babbage122

Tonight is reminding me that autumn is ahead, there is darkness in the evening and my neighbours have their outdoor lights on. I live in Iceland and the time of the light nights are over for this year.
I have being thinking about some of the type designers that were giving us very fine work in the beginning of the digital age and I wonder why some of them that used to work for big companies seem to have disappeared, information about them is scarce and maybe none.
I am thinking of people like Carol Twombly, Chris Holmes, Charles Bigelow, where are they now?
Would be happy if anybody could tell me about them.
