109 • DANIEL SWARTZ

Our guest is ⁠Daniel Swartz⁠ — a letterpress designer, printer, and writer based in rural northern Indiana, where he runs Hoosier Type Company out of the back of his garage using antique wood type, vintage presses, and hand-mixed inks.This episode, Daniel sits down with host ⁠Christian Solorzano⁠ for a conversation that moves between his winding path from aspiring illustrator to graphic design educator to letterpress printmaker, the serendipitous gift of a printing press that started it all, and what it took to rebuild a creative practice from scratch after 2020. They talk about the relationship between digital and analog, the beauty of working within constraints, faith and humility as creative foundations, and what it means to make something that lasts beyond a file in the cloud.Music by Eighties Slang.
