0Terrence’s talk on Action is coming up in just over a week with tickets available in just two days. But who’s this guy we keep talking about? Well, we’re glad you asked.

This is Terrence. And the shirt isn’t just a clever novelty-tee, he’s a respected type-designer, currently employed by Monotype. You know, the guys that have either owned or created this, and this, and this. 

Even if you aren’t as nerdy about it as we are, type is all around us, and you’ve probably spent a lot of time looking at Monotype’s products even if you didn’t know it. 

In a roundabout way, that means you’ve also met Terrence, who’s job it is to take those classics to the next level. He’s done custom type for Domino’s Pizza, contributed to Microsoft’s Segoe UI (used in their products like Windows and Xbox), and even built out one of the six you can select from if you’re reading this blog off a Nook GlowLight.

Over the next couple days, we’ll check out some of Terrence’s work a little closer - be sure to join us at MLive next week, 08/27 for Action!
