David Murray - David is currently a freelance commercial photographer and owner of ClearEyePhoto, which he founded in 2008 after retiring from a 30 year career as a Silicon Valley executive, computer scientist and entrepreneur.
In that career he cofounded several successful software companies, including Frame Technology in 1986. Frame went public and was acquired by Adobe Systems in a stock swap valued at $500 million. David was the lead designer and co-author of Frame's flagship software products and was VP of engineering.
After Frame, David cofounded and was involved at a senior level in 4 other software startups; one went public at a valuation of ~$1 billion. Before Frame, he designed and coauthored the first commercially available hypertext/hypermedia software product, Filevision for Macintosh, which won numerous awards and was an Infoworld Software Product of The Year. His "next big thing" involves the legitimate and friendly use of drones. http://www.cleareyephoto.com/
