Item Special Note

David Lance Goines (born May 29, 1945) is an American
artist, calligrapher, typographer, printing entrepreneur, and author. In 1968 he founded Saint Hieronymus Press in the same Berkeley printshop where he had learned his trade. There he has remained, designing his work and printing it by both letterpress and photo-offset lithography. His work has been the subject of solo exhibitions and is represented in the permanent collections of numerous museums, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Achenbach Collection of the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco. He is also the author and publisher of a variety of books.

Chez Panisse, in Berkeley, CA, opened its doors in 1971, founded by Alice Waters and a group of idealistic friends. A neighborhood bistro, it is named after Honoré Panisse, a character in Marcel
Pagnol’s 1930s movie trilogy about waterfront life in Marseille (Marius, Fanny,and César), as an homage to the sentiment, comedy, and informality of theseclassic films.

Goines has enjoyed a friendship with the restaurateur Alice Waters since they were both teenagers. Every year Goines creates a Chez Panisse anniversary poster and has illustrated many Chez Panisse cookbooks.
