Frederic Ira Parke graduated from the University of Utah with a BS degree in physics in 1965. He was then a graduate student of the University of Utah College of Engineering where he received his MS (1972) and PhD (1974) in computer science.
In 1972 in a project partially financed by DARPA Parke made the first 3D animation of a representation of a human face. This animation was wireframe graphics underneath but used the now classic Gouraud shading that estimates curving surfaces that was invented the previous year by computer scientist Henri Gouraud.[1] He has worked at the New York Institute of Technology Computer Graphics Laboratory.[2]
Parke currently teaches at Texas A&M University in the Visualization Sciences program.
