Gary Coyne
Although retired now, for over 40 years Gary Coyne was a scientific glassblower. That is, he made, and often designed, glassware for scientific research (the kinds of things you see in the background of science fiction movies, but Gary made his items for actual research, not the movies). Gary spent the last 32 years of his career in the Chemistry Department at CSULA.
When the Mac came out in 1986 Gary quickly became a Mac nerd and became the Chemistry Depts, Go-To guy for the professors and staff who needed help on their Macs. When Apple released their scanner in 1988, Gary bought one and has owned a scanner ever since.
In the late ‘90s Gary was using and beta testing GoLive Cyberstudio. When Adobe bought that program, Gary followed and became a beta tester for Adobe GoLive. Soon he was beta testing many other applications such as Photoshop, Acrobat, Illustrator, InDesign, Lightroom, and other applications.
Now retired, Gary spends his days woodworking, biking, and spending too much time on his computer and scanner.
