Meet the Staff: Bill Williamson

by GALILEO Staff

Bill Williamson started work with GALILEO in 2007. He has responsibility for supporting the New Georgia Encyclopedia, as well as other GALILEO programming activities. Bill graduated from University of Central Florida in 1984 with a BS in Computer Science. Bill comes to GALILEO from the corporate world and is excited to be a part of an educational environment. His introduction to GALILEO was through his sons (two) who are avid users of GALILEO. Now that Dad is working on the New Georgia Encyclopedia, Bill’s sons have become advocates of NGE and are insisting that all their teachers use NGE. In addition to programming, Bill enjoys woodworking, barbeque/grilling, gardening, birdwatching, and camping. He also enjoys genealogy and photography. The combination has led Bill to have a digitized collection of over 17,000 photographs. Just to give you perspective, the Vanishing Georgia collection has over 18,000 photographs!
