My love of photography started when I was a child, and I shot with whatever snapshot camera I could get ahold of. I graduated to an AE-1 in college, and then went digital. I had a long gap between the AE-1 and a Sony NEX-6 before I felt like I was really taking pictures again the way I loved to. I’ve since upgraded to a Fujifilm X-E4 and shoot a mix between it and an iPhone 14 Pro. I work as a technology journalist and type and printing historian. I’ve written many books, which include a trip through London’s current memory of its typographic past, London Kerning, and a letterpress-printed book (by my hand) of reporting on type, language, and history called Not To Put Too Fine a Point on It, and a broad history of printing, Six Centuries of Type & Printing. In 2019, I created the Tiny Type Museum & Time Capsule, now a sold-out edition of 108 little museums of real artifacts. My latest book is How Comics Are Made, look at the production and reprodution of newspaper comics, from the artist’s hand to the printed page.
