Matthew Carter
Matthew Carter (born 1 October 1937 in London)〔(A Man of Letters ), U.S. News & World Report, 1 September 2003.
〕 is a type designer and the son of the English typographer Harry Carter (1901–1982). He lives in Cambridge, Massachusetts, United States.
He designed the classic web fonts Verdana and Georgia, as well as other designs including Bell Centennial, Miller and Tahoma. In 2010, he was named a MacArthur Fellow.
==Education==
Although Carter had intended to get a degree in English at Oxford University he was advised to take a year off so he would be the same age as his contemporaries who had gone into National Service. It was through his father, Harry Carter, also a type designer, that Matthew Carter was given an internship at the Joh. Enschedé type foundry in the Netherlands. At the age of 19, Carter spent a year studying in The Netherlands where he learned from Jan van Krimpen's assistant P. H. Raedisch, who taught Carter the art of punch cutting. By 1961 Carter was able to use the skills he acquired to cut his own version of the semi-bold typeface Dante.
