In all likelihood, Paul Walsh became the first dramaturg to work on a computer game when he contributed story-lines and dialog to Doug Sharp's KING OF CHICAGO while finishing his doctorate at the Graduate Centre for the Study of Drama at the University of Toronto. Walsh went on to a successful career in the theater. He taught theater history at Southern Methodist University (1989-96) before moving to San Francisco as dramaturg at the American Conservatory Theater (www.act-sfbay.org/about/staff/html).
