Some (like Linotype and FontShop) say that Ronald Trogram is the designer of Handel Gothic (1980), now sold by URW, Linotype and Elsner&Flake. Kathleen Tinkel clarifies: Handel Gothic came from FotoStar, a 2-inch filmstrip company from L.A. The designer was Ronald Trogram (not Robert Trogman, who was a graphic designer in the 1970s). Well, I will be damned, because Robert Trogman ran FotoStar, and Handel Gothic was a FotoStar font. Identifont goes as far as to say that Handel Gothic was a 1964 font by Don Handel. My question is---did Ronald Trogram design *any* font in his life?
