About the Author: Dan Gilbert is the creator and developer of the Atlas addon for World of Warcraft.

Dan also sometimes works as a web developer, a graphic artist, and a cinematographer. He designs T–shirts at threadless.com, where his designs I Heart Color and Release have been printed.
Dan recently graduated from Hampshire College in Amherst, MA where he studied film production. For his thesis project (or Div III) he created a film called The Nightingale Princess with his co–conspirators, Christopher Dreisbach and Owen Granich–Young. The three of them have websites at thenightingaleprincess.com and ocdproductions.net. So far the movie hasn t gotten into any festivals, but Dan has his fingers crossed. He currently lives in Northampton, MA. In his spare time, he enjoys sleeping.
