David Futato has a bachelor of science in creative writing from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, so -- with such a unique degree -- O'Reilly seemed like the logical choice; David has worked as a production editor at O'Reilly for more than two years.

Erik Olson is a renegade linguist who makes a living developing software for Win32 platforms. Erik is currently the chief technical officer at Axiom Technologies, LC, a software outsourcing shop.

Although much of his work is done in C++, he has particular interests in Web development and scripting languages. Erik coauthored Learning Perl on Win32 Systems with Tom Christiansen and Randal Schwartz.
