|June 09, 2025
BILL ATKINSON, the Apple Computer designer who created the software that enabled the transformative visual approach pioneered by the company's Lisa and Macintosh computers, making the machines accessible to millions of users without specialized skills, died on Thursday night at his home in Portola Valley, California, in the San Francisco Bay Area.
He was 74. In a Facebook post, his family said the cause was pancreatic cancer.
It was Atkinson who programmed QuickDraw, a foundational software layer used for both the Lisa and Macintosh computers; composed of a library of small programs, it made it possible to display shapes, text and images on the screen efficiently.
