WednesdayPre-Conference Programs9:00 am - 12:00pm and 1:30pm - 4:30 pmSpending the Day with Dard Hunter - American Arts & Crafts Designer, Paper Historian and Private Press Printer Dard Hunter (1883?-1966) was a multifaceted Ohio man born into a dynamic newspaper family. The young Dard spent his formative years as a Roycroft craftsman and designer, working in a variety of media including graphic arts, metal, wood and stained glass. While he could have had a successful and long career in that field, he instead chose to pursue the ancient hand book crafts of type cutting, papermaking, and printing while writing about his favorite topic: paper. The day-long program will feature a slide-illustrated talk about Hunters life and work conducted by his principal biographer, as well as a chance to look more closely at Hunter's books in the Marriott Library collection.
