Add to basketA pioneering appraisal of female typographers, with historical research and interviews with contemporary practitioners
First published by Onamotapee in 2021, this important book returns to print with a survey of the past and present of women working in typography. The first section is a statistical overview of the field apropos of gender, supplemented with biographies of female type designers that worked in the 19th and early 20th centuries. These women contributed to the industry significantly, but are rarely mentioned in histories of the subject.
The second portion of the volume comprises a series of interviews with 14 women that are either currently working as type designers or are in other ways involved in the field of type design: Gayaneh Bagdasaryan, Veronika Burian, Maria Doreuli, Louise Fili, Martina Flor, Loraine Furter, Jenna Gesse, Golnar Kat Rahmani, Indra Kupferschmid, Briar Levit, Zuzana Licko, Ana Regidor, Fiona Ross and Carol Wahler. The final section of the book presents a showcase of typefaces designed by women.
