About

I’m a 29 year-old Penn (not Penn State!) graduate with a degree in Politics, Philosophy, and Economics (after I dropped out of the Computer Telecommunications Engineering program). I’ve spent my career thus far primarily working on consumer internet products or films (with a brief dalliance in electoral politics), and most recently spent just under 4 years at Yahoo!. For those interested, my full resume can be found here.Me in Croatia

My pops makes movies, and I grew up spending most of my time off school on film sets. My first computer was a Commodore 64, and when I was 13 I became so addicted to AOL that I used to sign up with fake credit card numbers (hopefully, the statute of limitations on that one has run out ;-) ). Since I discovered computer animation in 8th grade, my dream has been to preside over a happy union between my two great loves: technology and entertainment. I guess I’m kinda lucky that 15 years later no one has yet really figured it out, and there’s still an opportunity for me to have a hand in the solution.

If you wanna holla at me, shoot an email to: jonathan[at]jonathanhstrauss[dot]com

And until I get around to integrating all the widgets etc, here’s where to find me on various interwebby services:

  • Facebook
  • LinkedIn
  • Twitter
  • del.icio.us
  • Flickr
  • Last.fm
  • thesixtyone
  • Upcoming
  • Dopplr
  • Tripit

Please note that while I’m pretty public about what I’m up to, I don’t really like adding people to my networks on these types of sites unless I actually know them. So, please don’t be offended if I don’t accept an invite.
