chromatic is the pseudonym of a writer and free software programmer who resides in Hillsboro, Oregon, United States. He is the author of Extreme Programming Pocket Guide, a co-author of Perl Testing: A Developer's Notebook, the lead author of Perl Hacks, and an uncredited contributor to The Art of Agile Development. He has contributed to CPAN, Perl 5, Perl 6, and Parrot.

In 2009, he founded Modern Perl Books, in part to revitalize the world of Perl and to publish materials that other publishers had neglected.[1]

In 2010, he released the book Modern Perl in print and in electronic form, with the latter redistributable freely (though with a suggested donation).
