Jim Rutten

This may be a tough one so put your thinking caps on:

Who is this person?

He/she had his/her 1st scroll saw at the age of 7.

He/she went to Dartmouth College in pre-med.

He/she made architectural pieces for millionaires.

He/she was an associate editor for American Woodworker (although I found a source that listed him/her as executive editor).

He/she said "You need the veracity and immediacy of the interaction with somebody who knows how to do it. I came to know a lot of people, which helped me learn a heck of a lot more about woodworking than I would have otherwise."

His/her workbench is made of curly beech and bloodwood, with birdseye maple back board, curly maple top on the tail vise and a Thai rosewood shoulder vise face.

Clearly an amazing person. Who is it?

Those people who use search engines to find the answer should be ashamed of themselves. ;-)

Bill and Don share the Rogue Trivia award as they both, I'm sure, had the correct answer, Ellis Walentine.
