About

Roberta Williams is a video game designer and writer, born in 1953 in La Verne.

In context

Sierra On-Line was founded in 1979 and closed in 2008, after 29 years. Among the 18 other video game industry companies founded in the 1970s we hold, those that closed lasted a median of 23 years, so this one outlasted most of them.
