Lonnie Mimms is the founder and curator of the Computer Museum of America, exhibits featuring selected artifacts from the digital revolution.

From a very young age, Lonnie was interested in electronics. He started playing with Radio Shack kits in the early 1970s. By the age of ten, he gained access to an IBM 360 and was writing programs in APL. In the mid-70s, he and his best friend would go to the Rich Computer Center at GA Tech and spend Saturdays writing programs and playing games on the Cyber 74.

Over the years, Lonnie continued to hone his programming skills graduating from Georgia Tech, where he majored in Electrical Engineering. After graduation, he entered the family real estate business where he continues to work as the CEO.

Lonnie has always been a collector and kept all of his early computers, which were the inspiration for him to create exhibits and open the museum. As a co-founder of the Vintage Computer Festival Southeast held in Atlanta, this offered an opportunity to display and share part of his collection. Lonnie feels passionate about preserving computing artifacts and sharing the history of digital revolution can inspire the future.

Karin Mimms is VP of Computer Museum of America.
