My sweet spot was always acting, and I earned an MFA and PhD in Theatre. About the time I was working on my PhD I discovered what would become personal computers. I’ve worked in interactive media since 1976 as a designer, researcher, writer and teacher. I founded and chaired two graduate transmedia design programs at California College of Arts and at Art Center College of Design (2001-2006). Based on my research in gender and technology at Interval Research, I co-founded Purple Moon in 1996. Long strange trip.
