About the designer:
Thaddeus Szumilas was born on May 28th, 1951 in Warzyn, Poland. He came to the United States in 1966, fleeing communist oppression. Attending Harren High School and New York’s Parsons School of Design, he majored in illustration. Rudimentary training under John Pistilli in the Sudler & Hennesey Advertising Agency prepared him for the challenging world of commercial typography. This experience led him to freelance projects for other major advertising agencies and design firms, covering fields of corporate identity, packaging, cinema, book publishing, and every other typographic assignment imaginable. This resulted in the inspiration for the dozens of typefaces compiled in his private library. Thaddeus attributes ineffable gratitude to Tom Carnase — the master of masters — whose patience in training, encouragement and dedication molded young talent into an inspired designer and educator.
Thaddeus has been teaching basic and advanced typography at Pratt Institute in Brooklyn, New York for the past 10 years and persistently keeps designing text and display typefaces. His aim is to introduce innovative, original typefaces to the international audience of marketing and design.
