Python Vladimir Anghelo is an artist best known for his work on video games and pinball machines. Anghelo was born in Transylvania, Romania, and moved to the United States when he was 17. After studying art and animation both in Romania and the US, he worked as an animator for Disney until 1979 when he moved to Williams Electronics to create the artwork for Joust, taking a 50% pay-cut in the process because he believed that video games had more potential than traditional animation.[1] He continued to work for Williams (and, later, Midway Games after they merged with Williams) for 15 years until 1994, when his most ambitious project, The Pinball Circus, was shelved. In 1994 he left Williams for Capcom, and designed one game for them entitled Flipper Football. He was in the process of designing his second Capcom game, an "erotic" pinball game entitled Zingy Bingy when Capcom closed down their pinball division.
Currently, Anghelo works at Bay Tek Games.
