How Bruno Press Came to Be: My father, Don Bruno, was a professor of art at the College of Saint Benedict and St.Cloud State University. He was also a freelance designer, the best in the world. He started falling in love with letterpress in the eighties and began acquiring presses, type and everything else needed to set up a great little shop in St.Joseph, Minnesota. I spent a lot of time printing with my father and when he passed away suddenly in 2003, the shop was handed over to me. It is a great legacy and I have made it my own with a lot of blood (from linoleum block carving), sweat (from pushing deadlines) and tears (from missin' my pop).
