HISTORY
Artist and writer David Lance Goines was born May 29, 1945 in Grants Pass, Oregon.He attended the University of California at Berkeley as a Classics major, but in his second year was expelled as a consequence of his participation in the Free Speech Movement. Though later readmitted, he had by then lost his taste for higher education and in 1965 apprenticed with a Berkeley printer, becoming in the fullness of time a journeyman of that Art and Mystery. He is the author of five books, collaborated on three, and his work has been the subject of six others.
In 1968 he founded Saint Hieronymus Press in the same Berkeley printshop where he had learned his trade. There he has remained, designing his work and printing it by both letterpress and photo-offset lithography.
His artwork has been reproduced in numerous professional publications, including American Illustration, Communication Arts, Graphis, How, Print, and Step-By-Step Graphics. His artwork has been exhibited in more than one hundred one-man and group shows, both national and international.
He lectured frequently, in various places nationwide, and taught occasionally at the University of California, Berkeley, at the UC Extension, and the California College of Arts and Crafts, Oakland. He is the author of five books, collaborated on three, and his work has been the subject of six others. David Lance Goines died February 19, 2023.
