Brannon is the proprietor of Speakeasy Press, which was established in Alabama and has recently moved to Western North Carolina. Under the Speakeasy imprint, he has published several limited editions of poetry and fiction with original illustrations.
In 2005, Brannon published “Cherokee Phoenix: Advent of a Newspaper,” an original scholarly publication about the printing of the Cherokee Phoenix from 1828 to 1834 in New Echota, Ga. In addition to the research and writing for this book, Brannon made all the paper by hand, printed it using the letterpress process, and bound it himself.
His work has been exhibited nationally and is in many library collections. In 2008, he will be a visiting artist in letterpress printing at the Penland School of Crafts.
