Hogarth Press

The Hogarth Press was founded in 1917 by Leonard and Virginia Woolf. It was named after their house in Richmond, in whose dining room the books were at first hand printed. From being a hobby, it grew during the inter-war years to being a business, with the books being printed by commercial printers. In 1938 Woolf relinquished her in interest in the business and it was then run as a partnership by Leonard Woolf and John Lehmann until 1946, when it became an associate company of Chatto & Windus.
