I work for Avid Technology, in their Broadcast division doing TV news automation. I got my PhD in Astronomy from UW. In my free time, I work on Perl::Critic and several other hobby projects.

Don Smith
Currently working as a web developer (classic ASP, ASP.NET, PHP, Perl) for a Milwaukee/Chicago based Advertising Agency.
I got my Camel Book and started tinkering with Perl in '97 which has led to an ongoing love of all things Perl and O'Reilly.
In my spare time I poke around with Linux and some other F/OSS stuff. I also play guitar, a bit of bass, and frequent rock/punk/metal shows in and around Madison.
