MIATA LEGENDS
TOM MATANO & NORMAN GARRETT
- We’re fortunate to once again have with us one of our favorite people – Tom Matano! Not only is he the original Chief Designer of the Miata, he’s a heck of a nice guy. There’s a bit of a tradition here, as Tom has joined us for literally every Miata Reunion event we’ve ever held – so it just wouldn’t be a Reunion without him. We look forward to Tom addressing our east coast Miata family!
- Norman H. Garrett III is an accomplished Automotive Engineer working for major companies such as Mazda, Subaru, Volvo, etc.. He is best known as the Concept Engineer for the original Mazda Miata design, stemming from his work for the automaker’s Southern California Design Studio. There, he developed the original suspension and packaging layout, achieving the groups goal of the ultimate “Lightweight Sports Car" with excellent balance and handling characteristics. His corporate experiences span the global automotive development arena, with notable success in specific markets related to energy, emissions, and materials. He has worked on technology transfer projects with Georgia Tech and Oak Ridge National Lab as well as with private ventures. Garrett is a native of North Carolina with an engineering degree from Georgia Tech, where he has also served as an adjunct faculty member.
