Gordon Robert Fidler, 1947–2022

We are saddened to learn of the recent passing of Gordon Robert Fidler, one of the founders of Talonbooks. A dedicated lover of the arts, Fidler ferried early Talonbooks publications into existence by way of a printing press in his parents’ basement. We are grateful to Fidler for his many years of work both at Talonbooks and in multiple creative industries in Vancouver. A photographer, chef, graphic designer, publishing professional and more, Gordon Fidler’s legacy will resonate for years to come. Our deepest condolences to his family, friends, and community during this difficult time. May his memory be a blessing.
