Nathan Williams | Principal Nathan Williams, founder of Baseline fonts, spent most of his time at the University of Kansas Art Museum Library and Print Research Department.
Nathan was consistently a miserable student, but a quick study at printing methods, graphic design and reverse-engineering of undocumented printing methods. While attending the University, he developed an affinity for typography and began creating fonts from historic samples in 1995.
Brian Miller | Type Aficionado & Designer Brian Miller is Vice President of Gardner Design and a type aficionado. Brian's work appears on packages and in print all over the planet. Brian Miller designed Country Fang, one of the Baseline Fonts fonts and has also provided an endless source of enthusiasm, feedback and testing for numerous typefaces over the years.
James Kandt | Legendary Art Director and Contributor James Kandt founded the art department of Sullivan Higdon and Sink, now one of the largest advertising agencies in Kansas and Missouri. James illustrated Kandt Headline and Text. Baseline is an imaginary line or standard by which things are measured or compared. In typographic terms, it refers to the lowest point on the common axis where the characters rest. The goal of the foundry is to provide uninterpreted revivals of type samples generated through disappearing printing methods, and create new fonts for dissemination in the type community.
