I was born in Wichita Kansas and attended Willard Elementary, Roosevelt Junior High, Wichita East High and Wichita State University where I earned a B.A. in psychology. My education continued at the University of Kansas where I got my act together for grad school application. I was accepted in the Psychology Department at New Mexico State University where I studied under Warren Teichner, Evelyn Williams and Stanley Roscoe. I eventually earned a PhD.
I played in a rock band in high school and through college worked in two shoe stores, a liquor store, golf course and juvenile detention center. My professional career started with SRL, Inc. at Wright-Patterson AFB OH and continued with Anacapa Sciences in Santa Barbara CA and Kaiser Electronics (later Rockwell-Collins) in San Jose CA. I am currently a private consultant.
My professional interests are vision science and virtual display systems. With the latest Apple headset announcement, I have again become interested in the apparent distance of virtual graphics and imagery. My website is http://www.kirkmoffitt.com.
For 28 years I have lived in La Quinta CA in a beautiful desert pool home with my wife Mary MacGregor and myriad pets.
