The "big" guys make outstanding fonts. Adobe, Monotype, Linotype, etc. There are some excellent smaller foundries making top notch stuff-PsyOps, Fountain, Hoefler, DTL and Porchez to name a few, are designing new stuff as well as revivals. I was always a fan of Font Company type, don't know how to get their stuff in the US, yet I thought they were an american company. It is worth noting that different foundries make different cuts of the same font and therefore, I would hesitate recommending buying from just the one place.
