    Autorenporträt
    Stephen Boss began making letterforms as a child, using pencils, brushes and calligraphy pens; next, a mouse and Bezier points; and

    now a mixture of media when designing new fonts. While studying at the Center for Creative Studies, Detroit, in the days of hand

    rendering type, Stephen was fortunate to have Richard Isbell as his type instructor.

    Interested in developing typefaces with a unique vernacular, Stephen started Emboss Fonts in 1995. He has consulted on type design

    project for Fairchild, JP Morgan Chase, Bumble & Bunble and Osh Kosh. He has also worked on more traditional design projects for

    the UN, Pfizer, Verizon, Walt Disney, Bank of America and many more.

    His work has been internationally recognized in juried shows, and featured in such publications as Japan's Timing Zero, Publish

    Magazine, and mass HiTech. He recently coatuhored the book The New Web Typography by CRC Press/Chapman & Hall.
