Kevin Foley is an independent type designer and founder of Kevin Foley Fonts. A Massachusetts native, he spent 25 years in Japan running an independent graphic design studio serving major Japanese and global brands before returning home. He is currently Design Director at MIT Sloan Management Review. His graphic design work has been recognized by Graphis and the Society of Publication Designers.

A graduate of the Type@Cooper Extended Program in typeface design, he came to type design after decades of using type as a working designer — bringing a practitioner’s eye to every decision.

Outside the studio, he pretends to play guitar, goes to concerts like it’s still 1991, and is in denial about his skateboarding ability.
