Michael Sull, IAMPETH Master Penman

Michael Sull (born 1949) is an IAMPETH master penman[1] and author living in Gardner, Kansas, United States. An expert on penmanship, he was Ronald Reagan's calligrapher after his presidency[2] and is known worldwide for his skill and teaching ability.[3] He regularly teaches handwriting, calligraphy, and engrossing programs throughout the United States, Europe and Asia.

Considered one of America's foremost living Spencerian penmen,[3] he has taught American Penmanship in over twenty countries and is the author of Spencerian Script and Ornamental Penmanship, Learning to Write Spencerian Script, ‘’’Sull’s Manual of Advanced Penmanship’’’, ‘’’The Art of Cursive Penmanship’’’,’’’Sull’s Spencerian Practice Set’’’,’’’Poems Of A Penman’’’,and American Cursive Handwriting, and publishes various other educational materials focusing on pen writing. He also manufactures period style oblique dip penholders and pen blocks for use by penmen today.His penmanship is in the permanent collection of the World Calligraphy Museum in Moscow, Russia.

In Geneva, Ohio (Platt R. Spencer's home town) Sull previously organized annual week-long seminars dedicated to Spencerian script known as the Spencerian Saga from 1987-2012 wholly devoted to Spencerian Script and Ornamental Penmanship. Widely known for his penmanship skills and teaching abilities, he is the founder of ‘’’The Spencerian Monument of American Handwriting’’’ in Geneva, Ohio.

Sull's career, however, didn't begin in the penmanship industry. After graduating from Syracuse University with a degree in forestry, he enlisted in the U.S. Navy and was awarded the American Spirit Honor Medal. It wasn't until his discharge from the Service that he began to pursue his interest in calligraphy. Sull's penmanship has lent itself to a lengthy career in the field, enabling him to found a calligraphy guild, work as a calligrapher and lettering artist at Hallmark Cards, and start his own ornamental penmanship company.

Today, Sull serves as Master Penman for Zaner-Bloser, serving as a historic consultant and performing public demonstrations. [4] He currently resides with his wife, Debra, in Gardner,Kansas.[3]
