How did he become the exective producer of the elderscrolls games ?

Todd Howard is currently the executive producer of Bethesda Softworks, a position he has been credited with since the release of Bloodmoon. His work on the Elder Scrolls series started with the CD release of Arena. Since then he worked his way up the ladder at Bethesda from designer to Project Leader, and finally to Executive Producer. Howard is also the executive producer of the Fallout series.

His impact on the development becomes clear if one looks under the skin. Howard was heavily involved in preliminary game testing, as is apparent in the cells named after him (i.e "ToddTest") in both Morrowind and Oblivion.

I didn't know he had his own UESP page. Now i am not asking the question like who's butt did he kiss to become the executive producer i just generally wanted to know. There is something about him i really don't like. But i don't know what it is.

He applied for a job at Bethesda before graduating and is now one of the longest-serving members of staff, having been there for well over a decade and worked his way up through the ranks.

Since the question has now been answered and since we do not tolerate flames and this thread contains a nasty personal attack on a member here (Todd), I'm closing this.
