Wayne Strattman
Wayne Strattman received a Psychology degree from the University of Connecticut in 1974; then attended the University of Hartford as a National Merit Scholar, where he earned a BS in Mechanical Engineering/physics minor, Summa Cum Laude in 1979. Seven years later combining his engineering training and long time interest in glassblowing he founded Strattman Design, a company specializing in glass and electronic products. As an adjunct to this business he started a neon school and developed and taught a two-semester course in scientific glassblowing at MIT. In 1987 he began writing the "Neon Techniques" column for Signs of the Times magazine, and in 1996 he received the American Society of Business Press Editors award for editorial excellence for technical writing. Strattman's company now provides research and development services in neon, cold cathode and special effects lighting products and creates innovative lighting for applications as diverse as automobile use to alien cinematic backgrounds in many Hollywood films.
