Michael Haire worked on classics such as Sid Meier’s Pirates!, Civilization and Alpha Centauri.

Michael Haire got into the games industry as early as 1981, doing cover artwork for a number of games for the 8-bit computer TRS-80. He quickly started making ingame art as well, and started working for legendary games publisher/developer MicroProse in the mid eighties. Here, he worked on a number of games that are now considered classics, including Sid Meier’s Pirates! and Sid Meier’s Civilization. We had the pleasure of interviewing Michael Haire about his experience as an artist in the games industry.
