His parents Isaac Bers and Bertha Weinberg were teachers, his mother being head at an elementary school in Riga where teaching was in Yiddish while his father was head at the Yiddish high school in Riga. Born in 1914, Lipa's early years were much affected by the political and military events taking place in Russia. Latvia had been under Russian imperial rule since the 18 th century so World War I meant that there were evacuations from Riga. The Russian Revolution which began in October 1917 caused fighting between the Red Army and the White Army and for the next couple of years various parts of Russia came first under the control of one faction then of the other. Lipa's family went to Petrograd, the name that St Petersburg had been given in 1914 when there was strong anti-German feeling in Russia, but Lipa was too young to understand the difficulties that his parents went through at this time. At the end of World War I in 1918, Latvia regained its independence although this was to be short-lived. Lipa spent some time back in Riga, but he also spent time in Berlin. His mother took him to Berlin while she was training at the Psychoanalytic Institute. During his schooling mathematics became his favourite subject and he decided that it was the subject he wanted to study at university. He studied at the University of Zurich, then returned to Riga and studied at the university there.

BIOGRAPHICAL MEMOIRS National Academy of Sciences Courtesy of Victor Bers Lipman Bers By Irwin Kra and Hyman Bass INTRODUCTION L IPMAN BERS WAS BORN in Riga, Latvia, on 22 May 1914 into a secular intellectual Jewish family. At the time of his death, in New Rochelle, New York on 29 October 1993, he was the focal point of a large extended group of scientistsmostly mathematicians, many former doctoral students with whom he maintained close and continuous ties for decades. His friends and colleagues knew him as "Lipa." His life was a twentieth-century Jewish and intellectual odyssey. He had close encounters with fascism and Stalinism. In an irrational world he approached all issues through his intellect. He was born in Europe on the brink of revolutionary changes. He died in America after several tyrannies had come and gone. He started as a Bundist with strong anti-nationalist leanings, but over the years he grew increasingly fond of Israel. He opposed nuclear armaments as if there were no cold war; he fought tyranny as if this struggle had no arms control implications. He played an important role in American scientific politics. He made important and lasting contributions to both mathematics and the protection of human rights. He was never afraid to take strong moral positions, even from platforms of official leadership, yet he was pragmatic and effective. His optimism and good humor remained unflagging. Above all, he was a mathematician, and in whatever subfields of the subject he worked, he did complex analysis. All that he did, he did with style.
