Marty Alchin is a professional programmer with a passion for the Web. His work with Django, the

popular Web framework, led him to write several articles about Python, to speak at PyCon and even to

write his first book, Pro Django, which was published by Apress in December of 2008.

In addition to writing for print, Marty keeps a blog at http://martyalchin.com/, where he writes

about Python, Django and anything else that strikes his fancy.
