Hightower Text is a serif typeface designed by Tobias Frere-Jones.

It is loosely based on the printing of Nicolas Jenson in Venice in the 1470s, in what is now called the "old style" of serif fonts.

[1] Begun by Frere-Jones while he was a student, it was originally used in AIGA's magazine and released commercially by Font Bureau.

[2][3] It was named for the then-executive director of AIGA, Caroline Warner Hightower.

A commercial release is sold by Font Bureau in the OpenType format, which includes small capitals, ligatures and both lining and text figures.
