D. Richard Hipp is best known on the internet as the architect and primary author of SQLite. He and his wife, Ginger G. Wyrick, currently live and work in Charlotte, NC. He also authored CVSTrac, which later inspired Trac.

Richard was born in Charlotte on April 9, 1961 but grew up in the suburbs of Atlanta, GA. He graduated from Stone Mountain High School in 1979 and enrolled at Georgia Tech where as a freshman he underwent a religious conversion from atheism to born-again Christian. Upon graduating from Georgia Tech in 1984 with Master of Science in Electrical Engineering, Richard worked at AT&T for three years before returning to graduate school at Duke University to study under Alan W. Biermann in the Department of Computer Science.

Richard took the degree of Doctor of Philosophy from Duke in 1992 and finding the academic market for Ph.D.s saturated with better qualified candidates, started his own software development consulting company.

He married Ginger G. Wyrick on April 16, 1994, changed the name of his company to Hipp, Wyrick & Company, Inc, and signed all stock over to his new bride. Ginger and Richard moved to their present home in Charlotte, NC in August 1995.
