Computer Graphics Before the Beginning

I tell people that I started in computer graphics before the mouse was invented. The funny thing is that it is true. The mouse was developed by Xerox PARC circa 1980 and then released into consumer production models by Apple Macintosh in 1984. I started programming at the University of Illinois on the PLATO computer and visualizing math equations in classroom assignments as early as 1977. Fact.
