Larry Garfield has been building websites since he was a sophomore in high school, which is longer ago than he'd like to admit. Larry was an active Drupal contributor and consultant for over a decade, and led the Drupal 8 Web Services initiative that helped transform Drupal into a modern PHP platform.

He is a member of the PHP-FIG Core Committee, and author of Thinking Functionally in PHP, the premiere book on functional programming in PHP 7.4 and later.

Larry holds a Master’s degree in Computer Science from DePaul University. He blogs at https://www.garfieldtech.com/.
