David Carson of USA
Born: 1956
American Sociology teacher who one day started doing graphic design. First it was for the magazine Beach Culture. Next it was Ray Gun. All the time Carson was doing cool stuff like using an upside-down 5 as an S, using 3 for E, and often you could hardly read the articles, they were so way out! His influence on the stodgy type world has been like an asteroid from outer space.
In 1993 Carson started the GarageFonts digital type foundry as a vehicle to distribute the fonts used in Ray Gun magazine.
