You're probably reading this on one of the 500 million PCs where InstallShield has helped you add/remove 80% of the software on your hard drive. Morton Redner wrote, designed, and supervised publication of the original user guide for InstallShield, currently the sixth most-frequently used program in the world.

He once worked with Mad Men, writing TV, radio, and print ads on Madison Avenue for major consumer brands. A campaign he created for the Peace Corps raised recruitment 80% that year! (New York Times)

Sometime in the 1970s computers stirred his interest and Redner turned to technical writing, completing assignments in software, healthcare and pharmaceuticals, investment and finance, aerospace and defense technology.

Typical projects include e-learning, advertising, marketing, and documentation, multimedia presentations, software simulations, and demos with video, voice-over announcer, music, and animation.

You'll find a list of the software tools Redner uses on the Background page. But you needn't bother. Everyone uses pretty much those same apps. They just don't get the same results. Software doesn't make you a fine writer any more than knowing all the words in the dictionary.

The New York Times called one of Redner's user guides "excellent". You know you're not going to read anything bad here about Redner's writing. Instead, download some samples and see for yourself.

Redner is an M.A. graduate of the University of California at Berkeley who received his B.A. from Hobart College.
