Previously, Steve was an International Networking Coordinator at the National Science Foundation from 1989 to 2003. In the early '90's he helped to connect about 25 academic networks from around the world to the U.S. academic networking infrastructure. Then, Steve did it all over again with "advanced" networks in the mid-'90's, including an initiative for an international inter-connect point in Chicago, the STAR TAP. And, then, yet once again with gigabit, wavelength-based networks and transition from STAR TAP to StarLight. | Previously, Steve was an International Networking Coordinator at the National Science Foundation from 1989 to 2003.
