Bio |
My name is Abigail Steinem and I am a graphic designer and letterpress is my passion. I’m currently doing the corporate job, but I desperately want to get back to letterpress printing. I do not own my own shop, but it’s in my future. In college I was that kid that practically slept in the letterpress studio, trying to learn any and everything I could and print anything that popped into my head. Years later now, I still have good connections with my college shop and I print wedding invitations along with always getting together with printing friends to roll out beautiful holiday cards.I know how to run maintenance on a Vandercook SP-15 with my eyes closed and can make photopolymer plates with the best of them. I also know how to maintain and run a shop (I ran the university shop for over a year).I’m looking to get a little more experience on a platen press and any press, for that matter, that I haven’t worked on before.I’m also looking to join a letterpress studio. So if you’re looking to add to your team or studio, I’d love to talk further!I also just purchased my first press! A table tope Sigwalt named Walter! Very excited to get started printing some awesome things out of my apartment! Yay!
