ASP.NET Unleashed

Author Bio

Stephen Walther has been involved with Active Server Pages from the beginning. Since 1997, he has been running the Superexpert Web site (www.superexpert.com), a popular Active Server Pages resource on the Web and the first "live" Web site created with ASP.NET. His training company, AspWorkshops (www.AspWorkshops.com), conducted the first training class on ASP.NET. He also lectures regularly on ASP and ASP.NET.

Stephen got his start working with Active Server Pages by developing two large commercial Web sites. First, he created the Collegescape Web site, used by more than 200 collegesÑincluding Harvard, Stanford, and MITÑto accept online college applications (Collegescape was bought out by Petersons). Next, he created the CityAuction Web site, used by both Snap! and CitySearch (CityAuction was acquired by CitySearch).

Stephen received his bachelor of arts degree from the University of California at Berkeley. He was a Ph.D. candidate in Linguistics and Philosophy at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology when he became involved with the World Wide Web.
