About the Author
About the Author Deborah Shadovitz's first career was in television, video, and audio-visual production and editing. (She also dabbled in radio and theater production.) Her affinity toward GoLive is a result of her design and communications background. Like many of us, she's enamoured by the Web for its unique communication capability. Because of this, she appreciates GoLive's vision of making this communication easier for all, and loves showing off GoLive's easy designer-oriented methodology and power. She enjoys helping others use GoLive effectively and wanted to write this book since using GoLive 2 (then called GoLive CyberStudio). Deborah is well known in the Mac community as an author, instructor, and speaker. She started out on computers using DOS and followed the path to Windows, so she's also familiar with the Windows environment. She's done stints on several Los Angeles-area Internet group advisory boards and is an active participant in the user group community. Deborah is also on the GoLive Advisory Committee (as you can see if you watch the GoLive splash screen long enough). Deb is known internationally for her well-received column, "Mac Efficiency 101," at www.maccentral.com. She is coauthor of the award-winning Macworld Office 98 Bible, Claris Works Office For Dummies, and Apple Works 5 For Dummies, as well as a contributor to other books including My iMac (all from IDG Books Worldwide). She's a regular speaker/instructor at Macworld Expo, other trade shows and events, and at computer user groups. And of course, she teaches GoLive-you can catch her at various user-group meetings, trade shows, or private seminars.
