Guitar Hero & Rock Band

Seems everyone knows these two games: Guitar Hero, and Rock Band.

But do you know the CEO of the company responsible for these games?

Well, I just found out the other day that I actually do know him. Never realized until someone at work pointed out an article in Time magazine on-line.

His name is Alex Rigopulos. His farther, Peter, was the first president of Amicon's Life Science Division. Alex worked for me one summer while on break from college.

His father was a genius, and it would appear the apple didn't fall far from the tree. Way to go Alex!!

Here's few articles if you're interested:
