From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

David Lance Goines (born May 29, 1945) is an American artist, printing entrepreneur, and author.

He was born in Grants Pass, Oregon. As a student in classical literature at the University of California, Berkeley, he participated in the Free Speech Movement of late 1964, leading to his expulsion; though re-admitted, he left the university to apprentice as a printer in Berkeley. In 1968 he founded Saint Hieronymus Press there.

In 1982, Goines published his A Constructed Roman Alphabet, which won him the 1983 American Book Award.

He wrote The Free Speech Movement: Coming of Age in the 1960s, published in 1993.

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