"The Arion Press remains small, employing about ten people as printers, bookbinders, editors,and in other publishing roles. Part of the team are the highly skilled and long-experienced typesetters of Mackenzie & Harris, the oldest and largest surviving typefoundry in America,which was bought in 1989. M & H Type, as that division is also known, supplies lead-alloy type to printers and schools around the country and provides typographic services in computer-generated composition as well.
Arion Press is a self-sustaining business and has never been subsidized by grants. It has survived through hard work, perseverance, and devotion to excellence in the crafts of bookmakingand to imaginative presentation of worthy literary texts and visual art."
