Zimmer is an American Real Life Superhero living in Austin, Texas. He was a co-founder for the New York Initiative, as well as the founder of Zimtelligence. He is known for deliberately not cultivating a secret identity, unlike the norm for many RLSH, due to his feelings over the similarity of maintaining a RLSH persona with being "in the closet" as a gay man.
Zimmer has also spearheaded the Oracle Project and is likely one reason for popularization of the term "Oracle", as he was one of the first RLSH to emphasize the gathering of intelligence and data to combine it with the use of technology.
