Lead
Glenn Goluska (1947–2011) was a Canadian book designer and typographer. He was born on June 26, 1947, in Chicago and came to Canada as a student at the University of Toronto. After graduating, he worked in the United States for a few years. He was employed by the Northwestern University Library where he obtained a Poco Proof press and various typefaces. This was the first set of printing supplies Goluska had obtained and provided him with the means to begin printing. While working his press, Goluska would come across works by the Coach House Press. Goluska took interest in the publishings and would eventually be offered a job by the creator of the Coach House Press, Stan Bevington. Goluska accepted a job offer and moved to Canada to work with Coach House Press. He left Coach House Press to focus on letterpress printing: his imprints were Imprimerie Dromadaire and Nightshade Press.

Goluska was awarded the Robert R. Reid Award for lifetime achievement or extraordinary contributions to the book arts in Canada by the Alcuin Society in 2011. Goluska had a typeface designed in his honour by Nova Scotia type designer Rod MacDonald.

Attributed works
