  == Joan Shogren ==    Joan Shogren is an illustrator living in Santa Clara, California.  In 1963, Shogren produced the first computer program to allow computers to generate art by programming basic art principles into the San Jose State University computers. The first public showing of her computer art was in San Jose, California on May 6, 1963.  In 1984, Shogren and her two associates (Mike Mathis and Dennis Fregger) were contracted by T/Maker to produce the very first computer clip art images. These were black and white, bit mapped pictures and were sold by T/Maker through retail distribution as ClickArt, the first clip art product produced.
