A Tale of Two Fonts (and two very similar fonts)

Ben Schott has written eleven books, and hundreds of articles for newspapers and magazines around the world. The vast majority have been designed and typeset by the author – using only two fonts.
Ben will discuss his type-heavy design, and explain his font fidelity.

Ben Schott is a writer, designer, consultant, and recovering photographer. He is the author of the “Schott’s Miscellany” and “Schott Almanacs” series and of “Schottenfreude: German Words for the Human Condition.” His work has been translated into 21 languages (including Braille). A contributing columnist to the New York Times, Ben divides his time between New York and London.
