Carol Twombly (born June 13, 1959) is an American designer, best known for her type design.[1][2] She worked as a type designer at Adobe Systems from 1988 through 1999, during which time she designed, or contributed to the design of, many typefaces, including Trajan, Myriad and Adobe Caslon.
Twombly retired from Adobe and from type design in early 1999, to focus on her other design interests, involving textiles and jewelry.[3][4]
A biography of Twombly and her type design career by Nancy Stock-Allen was published in 2016.[5][6]
