Guido van Rossum is the creator of Python, one of the
major free scripting languages. He created Python in

actively involved in the development of the language.

In 1995 he moved to the US; first to work for CNRI in
Reston, VA as a researcher, then for Zope Corporation
as Director of PythonLabs, then, after a move to the
SF bay area, for Elemental Security, and then, since
December 2005, Google.
