Scientist, CTO, and Founder of SafeWorlds
Brilliant, arrogant, and dangerous. Just be glad he’s on your side on this. That aside, Reichart (”The Baron”) Started playing with computers back when “display” meant 8 LEDs in a row. He began his career at a very early age, and before being old enough to legally drink alcohol—was the art director for TV commercials for Coors, God Father’s Pizza, Pizza Hut, and Pepsi. In the early 1980’s he helped pioneer those really annoying music videos for the then fledgling MTV (sorry… ). It was then, that sadly Reichart’s life began a steep decline. Booze, cheap women, and world fame combined to bring down the once famous “wiz kid”. For years Reichart roamed the streets, homeless - without a friend in the world. He’d push around a shopping cart filled with his ideas and inventions (not to mention his really big foil ball and his lint collection). It should be quite obvious how he went from homelessness to heading multi-million dollar software companies, so we won’t go into that. But nevertheless, the foil ball served a critical role.
