Gibbs Smith

A humble publishing house now based in Utah, Gibbs Smith was founded by a husband-and-wife duo in a 1968 sculptor's studio in Santa Barbara, California. Having scraped together enough money to start his own venture, Gibbs and Catherine started up their own publishing company and moved to a barn in Utah – cows and chickens below, and office space on the second story. They still publish fantastic books of all kinds today, from cookbooks to school books to special interest categories.
