After studying theatre in London, then working for several years as an actor in the U.S.,�Todd Yard�was introduced to Flash in 2000 and was quickly taken by how it allowed for both stunning creativity and programmatic logic application�a truly left-brain, right brain approach to production�and has not looked back. He now freelances as a Flash developer in New York City, creating both silly animations and utilitarian applications. His personal work and experimentation can be found at his website, 27Bobs.com.
