Brady Dommermuth
Brady Dommermuth is a writer. He is also a former Magic: The Gathering Creative Director, overseeing the Creative Team, at Wizards of the Coast. In addition, he functioned for a while as rules manager.[1]
Career
Brady had training in literature, theater, and drama criticism.[2] Once upon a time, Brady was an editor at the National Council for Teachers of English (NCTE) in Champaign, Illinois. A former colleague, Michael G. Ryan, referred him to WotC. Brady was an editor for numerous years. Then one day he mentioned to Bill Rose that R&D really needed a technical writer, and he was appointed as such. The tech writing position led to a short stint as interim rules manager and then led to him being the manager of a writing team. Brady eventually transitioned to becoming a world designer in charge of creating worlds for the game. At this time he reported to Tyler Bielman who was the creative director. Eventually, he took over that position.[3][4] In April 2013, his position at Wizards was eliminated.
