Ellie Mathews and Carl Youngmann are partners in The North Press. They acquired their first press on a whim early in their marriage. Carl had been a printer’s devil during high school, and Ellie had been working as a designer. Their backgrounds are in cartography and graphic software development. Ellie currently focuses on producing poetry broadsides. Carl keeps the presses running while adapting contemporary techniques of image making to letterpress.
