Charles Nix is senior executive creative director at Monotype. He grew up leading what he describes as a "charmed typographic existence", as his father was a printer, and began specialising in typography at the turn of the century.
At first, "folks didn't really understand what it was", explains Charles, but people are beginning to "cotton on" to it because of the introduction of computers. We now all interact with type every day, whether we realise it or not.
