Doyald Young, Master Typographer

Read about this legend who passed recently. Former president, Joe Wagner notes, “I had the honor as President of AIGA Baltimore of spending 2 evenings with Doyald Young. A soft spoken gentleman with a natural talent as a Master Typographer. His real gift was his genuine love of people and  typography as an art. I have always valued the signed book he gave me, “The Art of the Letter”. Over the past 8 years we stayed in touch through letters, cards and email. A true gentleman, I will miss you my friend.”
