This is Jerry Lawson, and in the mid-70s Lawson worked as the director of engineering and marketing at Fairchild Semiconductor when the company created the Fairchild Channel F – a home entertainment machine that allowed people to play a variety of games. This paved the way for systems such as the Atatri 2600, Nintendo, Xbox and Playstation. Lawson pioneered the video game cartridge. He was actually mostly a self-taught engineer and interacted with other people through the Homebrew Computing Club who would later become even more influential in the technology industry. Like Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak who he interviewed.
