About the Reviewers

Cynthia "CG" Anderson (yes, CGA are really her initials) has been involved in the software industry for over 20 years, and has worn many hats—from researcher, to software designer, to UI/UX consultant, to marketing/customer insight researcher, to AI experimenter, to technical writer, to program manager, but also to avid artist, and storyteller. She's shipped multimedia titles as well as written hundreds of pages of user/developer documentation for various companies, as well as advised other past technical books during her varied history. She's seen the rapid expansion of the Internet and of the visual dimension of computing, including being involved in virtual worlds standards definition and couldn't be happier at the result. In fact, she hopes many more people will embrace open source gems like Panda3D, as well as others of equal caliber, and continue to keep not just the open source community but the whole software industry alive and vibrant with new innovations, new opportunities for storytelling, and the creation of entirely new methods for virtual world immersion. You can contact CG through her page on LinkedIn. CG resides currently in the Seattle, WA area.
