CURT SCHILLING
FOUNDER AND CHAIRMAN
You might think Curt Schilling's biggest calling in life has been Major League Baseball, but the three-time World Series champion and six-time MLB All-Star is equally passionate about video games. When he’s not on the mound breaking curses, you can often find Curt playing an MMO on his laptop. It’s something he’s been doing since he was a teenager. Curt became involved on the business end of the industry over a decade ago in a relationship with Sony Online Entertainment. In 2003 and 2004 Curt served as the official spokesperson for the 3DO Company’s High Heat Baseball. Curt brought this love for gaming to life with the inception of 38 Studios in 2006.
In addition to this industry experience, Curt brings another unique perspective to the table: he has the instinct to recognize talent and lead a championship team. Curt and his wife Shonda are passionate philanthropists and have raised over $10 million to fight ALS (Lou Gehrig’s Disease), through Curt’s Pitch for ALS (
www.curtspitch.com), as well as encouraging awareness for sun protection through the SHADE Foundation (
www.shadefoundation.org).
Respected worldwide for his dedication to winning and his commitment to philanthropic causes, Curt is assembling a team to create something extraordinary with 38 Studios’ premier title.
