Thomas Knoll

Thomas Knoll is an American software engineer who created Adobe Photoshop. He initiated the development of image processing routines in 1988. After Knoll created the first core routines, he showed them to his brother, John Knoll, who worked at Industrial Light and Magic. John liked what he saw, suggested new features, and encouraged Tom to bundle them into a package with a graphical user interface. In 1988, John sold the distribution license for Photoshop to Adobe Systems and later on March 31, 1995, he sold the rights to the program to Adobe for $34.5 million.

Thomas Knoll was the lead developer until version CS4, and currently contributes to work on the Camera Raw plug-in to process raw images from cameras.

Knoll was born and raised in Ann Arbor, Michigan, and graduated from the University of Michigan.

For 30 years, his last name titled that of an elementary school also located in Ann Arbor, Michigan. The school, Summers-Knoll (SK), was founded by his wife, Ruth Knoll, in 1995. SK held recognition as Ann Arbor’s only independent progressive Preschool – 8th Grade program. As a learning environment, SK’s combination of project and place-based interdisciplinary curriculum set their focus on developing key academic and 21st century skills.

The name remained until its retirement at the end of the 2025-2026 school year when the school and its campus were officially acquired by Greenhills School. SK's ongoing enrollment and financial challenges made long-term sustainability impossible and after thoughtful discussions, SK's Board of Trustees and senior leadership explored multiple options and, reached out to Greenhills. Together, they found this acquisition the best suited and it ensured maintaining a creative, engaging, and personalized learning environment for students. The long-standing goal and respectful legacy that SK held and leaves behind as the school transitions.

The Summers-Knoll School campus will officially become "Greenhills’ Lower School" beginning in the 2026-2027 school year. Greenhills assuming leadership and operational oversight at Summers-Knoll for the 2025-2026 school year to ensure a smooth transition.

In 2016 Thomas and his brother John were inducted into the International Photography Hall of Fame and Museum.

At the 2019 Oscars, Thomas and his brother John were awarded a Scientific and Engineering Award for the original architecture, design and development of Photoshop. Provided by Wikipedia
