Richard P. Gabriel
Richard P. Gabriel (b. 1949) is a noted expert on the Lisp programming language (and especially Common Lisp) in computing. He is primarily known for his 1990 essay “Lisp: Good News, Bad News, How to Win Big”, which popularized the phrase Worse is Better, and his set of Lisp benchmarks (the "Gabriel Benchmarks"), published in 1985 as Performance and evaluation of Lisp systems, which became the standard way of benchmarking Lisp implementations.
