Marvin Bloomquist was born and raised in Austin. Obtaining an amateur radio license at the age of 13 led him to pursue an electrical engineering degree at UT. Despite coming from a family of modest means, he managed to pay his way through the first two years of college by saving from summer jobs while living at home. When his savings were about to run out, he approached H. W. Smith, the professor of his first EE class, about a job. Despite having no knowledge of computer programming, Prof. Smith gave him a “Fortran Primer,” and he ended up programming for him for the next two years.
