Erwin Tomash (November 17, 1921 – December 10, 2012)[1] was an American engineer who co-founded Dataproducts Corporation, which specialized in computer technology, specifically printers and core memory units.
[2] Upon graduating from the University of Minnesota, Tomash joined the U.S. Army Signal Corps,[3] where he worked with radar, and was awarded the Bronze Star for his wartime activities.
Following his time with the Army Signal Corps, Tomash served at the Naval Ordnance Laboratory briefly, before joining the Engineering Research Associates.
In 1966, core memory was added to the product line, and due to its resulting expansion, the company relocated to Woodland Hills, Los Angeles, California in 1968.
