Sean Cavanaugh is the founder of
The FontSite, a website about digital fonts, through which he releases a number of fonts.
He spends most of his days developing software, or writing about it (or cursing it). He’s been doing this since 1984 or so. The author of four books, Sean is also a contributing editor at
IdN magazine where he writes about type and technology.
“My love of type comes from a love for words,” he says. “I find it impossible to separate the two,” which is a more refined way of admitting he was an English Lit major and book nerd.
Sean occasionally gets away from the keyboard, and enjoys riding his motorcycle around the country.
His favorite typefaces are
Frutiger and
Bembo.
