Jackson Burke

Jackson Burke was an American type and book designer. After studying at the University of California, Berkeley, he succeeded C.H. Griffith as Director of Typographic Development at Mergenthaler Linotype from 1949 until 1963, where he designed several type faces.
He was also responsible for a number of other achievements at Mergenthaler-Linotype including:

development of fonts for Native American languages
development of the TeleTypesetting System for magazine use
development and implementation of the first phase of Linotype Group's photocomposition library

With his wife Mary Griggs Burke he was a noted collector of Japanese art; by the time of her death, the collection had become the largest private collection of Japanese art outside Japan. The couple did not have children, and on her death in 2012 their collection was divided between the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City and the Minneapolis Institute of Arts.
