CJ Cowan

CJ Cowan is an American video game designer. He is also a current employee at Bungie Studios. Born in 1979 in Hutto, Texas, USA, he grew up preportedly raising show turkeys in Williamson County, Texas. He has an interesting monologue on his Bungie.net profile:


 * I always go to sea as a sailor, because they make a point of paying me for my trouble, whereas they never pay passengers a single penny that I ever heard of. On the contrary, passengers themselves must pay. And there is all the difference in the world between paying and being paid. The act of paying is perhaps the most uncomfortable infliction that the two orchard thieves entailed upon us. But being paid - what will compare with it? The urbane activity with which a man receives money is really marvelous, considering that we so earnestly believe money to be the root of all earthly ills, and that on no account can a monied man enter heaven. Ah! How cheerfully we consign ourselves to perdition!

He was credited as a cinematic designer for Halo 2. He is likely currently working on the Halo 3 project.
