Grady Booch

Grady Booch (born February 271955) is a software designer, a software methodologist and a design pattern enthusiast. He is a Chief Scientist, Software Engineering in IBM Research, series editor for Benjamin/Cummings and former Chief Scientist of Rational Software (acquired by IBM on February 20, 2003), where he worked until March 18, 2008. In 1995 he was inducted as a Fellow of the Association for Computing Machinery. He was named an IBM Fellow in 2003, soon after his entry into IBM, and assumed his current role in March 18, 2008.

Booch is best known for developing the Unified Modeling Language with Ivar Jacobson and James Rumbaugh. He also developed the Booch method of software development, which he presents in his book, "Object Oriented Analysis and Design". He advises adding more classes to simplify complex code.

He earned his bachelor's degree in 1977 from the United States Air Force Academy and a master's degree in electrical engineering in 1979 from the University of California, Santa Barbara.
