Hmm - I've seen photos of the latter two, in various trade journals
over the years, but LW must be camera-shy (or I've just not spotted
the right articles).  I've wondered if the recent practice of not
including author photos on books is an advantage or disadvantage to
the reader.

P.S.: Perhaps instead of a Perl development fund (after all, Daniel
      may be serious), we who have benefitted from Perl (even us
      closet Lisp hackers) should contribute to a life insurance
      policy ... effectively thanking Gloria and the kids for their
      time sacrifice over the years, too.
