Frederic W. Goudy
Frederic W. Goudy (Bloomington, Illinois , March 8 1865- Marlborough-on-Hudson, May 11 1947) was a prolific American type designer whose typefaces include Copperplate Gothic, Kennerley, and Goudy Old Style. He also designed, in 1938, University of California Oldstyle, for the sole proprietary use of the University of California Press. The Lanston Monotype Company released a version of this typeface as "Californian" for wider distribution in 1956, while ITC created a digital version, called ITC Berkeley, in 1983.
