Key Smalltalk People

Alan Kay Dan Ingalls

Alan Kay

Alan Kay lead the team that invented the Smalltalk computer language and system.

"By the time I got to school, I had already read a couple hundred books. I knew in the first grade that they were lying to me because I had already been exposed to other points of view. School is basically about one point of view -- the one the teacher has or the textbooks have. They don't like the idea of having different points of view, so it was a battle. Of course I would pipe up with my five-year-old voice."
