Steve Cisler is a librarian and telecommunications consultant who has
been involved with community networks since 1986. In the 1990's while
at Apple Computer, Inc, he made grants to libraries and communities
that were building Free Nets and other community networks. He convened
two community networking conferences, Ties That Bind, in 1994 and 1995,
that brought together networkers from the United States, Great Britain,
Canada, New Zealand, Japan, Mexico, and Germany. He headed a project to
free up unlicensed wireless spectrum (5 GHz band) for public use. In
1996 he helped found what is now the Association For Community
Networking, and since then has been active in the rural United States
and in Latin America to help grow community-based ICT projects.
