“Cynthia Dantzic collects talented people. In two of her previous books, she explored the world of New York artists and photographers. Now she turns her sights on New York calligraphers. I was honored to be included in this wide survey of contemporary lettering painters. In this book, Dantzic has featured not only the best practitioners of Western calligraphy, both traditional and experimental, but she has also found artists working in the other great traditions from around the world. She has succeeded in capturing the talent and energy of this vast, polyglot, world metropolis.” –Christopher Calderhead, Editor of Letter Arts Review, author of Calligraphy Studio and co-author of The World Encyclopedia of Calligraphy

“100 New York Calligraphers is a celebration of lettering design and calligraphy, both traditional and experimental. As you would expect, these New York calligraphers provide a wonderful diversity of work, based on both Western and Eastern calligraphic forms. It is a stupendous, super-sized volume, filled with page after page after page of inspiration and scribal excitement.” –John Neal, Publisher of Letter Arts Review and Editor of Bound & Lettered
