Georges Louis Jean Baptiste Peignot[1] (June 24, 1872, Paris – September 28, 1915, Givenchy-en-Gohelle) was a French type designer, type founder, and manager of the G. Peignot & Fils foundry until his death in combat during World War I. The father of four children (including poet Colette Peignot, under her alias Laure), under his leadership the G. Peignot & Fils foundry became one of the most well-known and remarkable French typography houses of the twentieth century (an "elite house",[2] according to a former French Prime Minister): over 17 years, he created or launched several prestigious fonts, including Grasset, Cochin, and Garamont.
