Christian Rudder

Rudder was a founder of OkCupid. In the years immediately following the sites creation, he worked on the front-end product and developed the sites editorial voice. From 2009 - 2011, OkCupid published statistical observations and analysis of members preferences and connections; the blog posts were written by Rudder and gained wide-spread media attention. In February 2011, OkCupid was sold to IAC, the owner of Match.com and other dating properties, for $90 million. After the sale to IAC, Rudder assumed day-to-day control of OkCupid until he left in 2015. He plays guitar in indie band Bishop Allen and, with Justin Rice, co-writes the bands songs. On Bishop Allens first three albums, Rudder played most of the instruments except drums and piano.Through Bishop Allen, Rudder has contributed to the soundtracks of the movies Saved, Sleepwalk with Me, No Strings Attached, Nick and Norahs Infinite Playlist, Bully, and several other smaller films and commercials.
