About Author

Rusel DeMaria

Rusel DeMaria is the pen-name of Russell Ehrman. He began writing computer related articles in the late 1980's and published a few books on computers, contributed to magazines such as 'Computer Play', 'GamePro' and 'Personal Computer Games', advancing to Editor for both of the latter two. In 1990 he was contacted by Ben Dominitz of Prima Publishing to produce a series of video game books. He became creative-director of the videogames books. The Prima video game series went under two titles, Prima Publishing's 'Secrets of the Games', and 'Game Buster: Get a Clue', before shorting their production titles to simply "Prima Games". He had his first bestseller with the release of the 'Myst: Official Strategy Guide', which he co-wrote with Rick Barba. He became involved more with the design of games over the years, and wrote the fictional story "The Farlander Papers", which takes place in the Star Wars universe and was a limited Edition booklet that was released with the PC game "Star Wars: X-wing", much of the story was re-released in the Strategy Guide for that game also written by DeMaria. He worked as assistant director for game designer David Perry, and has since spent most of his time in game design, teaching and lecturing on games. [Sources: Wikipedia; Atari H.Q.
