Philip Hofer Curator of Printing and Graphic Arts at Houghton Library at Harvard University. In my spare time, curator of Biblioteca Tweetiana, an experimental personal collection of ca. 700 books that would not exist were it not for social media.
A native of Northern California, I was raised in Berkeley by parents who loved art, books, music, architecture, and the outdoors. My intellectual development went from books (childhood) to music theory (teen-hood) to poetry (college) to bookselling (the recession ’90s) to avant-garde literature (grad school) to artists’ books (dissertation) to special collections libraries (the last decade and counting), a world that I find more interesting, challenging, and satisfying with each passing year.
