简介

I grew up in New York City, and earned an undergraduate degree in Chemical Engineering from The Cooper Union in 1951. With the help of a Fulbright Scholarship, I then did graduate work in physics at the University of Edinburgh, where I earned my PhD. From 1956 through 1960, I was a Ford Foundation Fellow at the Niels Bohr Institute of the University of Copenhagen. From 1960 through 1965, I worked in the Physics Department of Princeton University, as Research Associate, Lecturer, and Assistant Professor. In 1965, I joined the Physics faculty of the University of Minnesota as an Associate Professor, and was promoted to Professor in 1968. I retired in 2000. I continue to do research in theoretical nuclear physics, mostly in collaboration with colleagues at the Universities of Padua and Milan.
