Dantzig Dissertation Award Who was George B. Dantzig? The son of a mathematician, George Bernard Dantzig was born in Portland, Oregon on November 8, 1914. His father, Tobias Dantzig, had been born in Latvia but, after being caught distributing anti-Tsarist propaganda, fled to Paris, where he studied under Henri Poincaré and met Anja Ourisson, then at the Sorbonne. They married and emigrated to Oregon, where Dantzig took jobs as a lumberjack and navvy. Though the family was initially very poor, Tobias Dantzig had ambitions for his children: George was named after George Bernard Shaw in the hope that he would become a writer, while his younger brother Henry took his name from Poincaré, and did in fact become a mathematician. Tobias Dantzig eventually took a PhD at the University of Indiana, and his wife, after taking a degree in French, became a linguist at the Library of Congress in Washington DC. George Dantzig received degrees from Maryland (1936) and the University of Michigan before earning his doctorate from the University of California, Berkeley, in 1946. While at Berkeley, he made an immediate impact (as described by Dr. Dantzig).

Tales of Statisticians George B Dantzig 8 Nov 1914 - George Dantzig, son of Tobias Dantzig (author of Number: The Language of Science), majored in mathematics at the University of Maryland, where his father then taught (it was cheaper than other schools, and the family was not well off). He began graduate work on a scholarship at the University of Michigan in 1936, and got his MA in 1937, but did not continue, due to his distaste for the abstractness of the mathematics he encountered there. After working for a while as a statistician in Seattle, he wrote in 1939 to Neyman, whose papers had interested him, and an assistantship was eventually arranged for him at Berkeley. This story from that period is a classic: "During my first year at Berkeley I arrived late one day to one of Neyman's classes. On the blackboard were two problems which I assumed had been assigned for homework. I copied them down. A few days later I apologized to Neyman for taking so long to do the homework the problems seemed to be a little harder to do than usual. I asked him if he still wanted the work. He told me to throw it on his desk. I did so reluctantly because his desk was covered with such a heap of papers that I feared my homework would be lost there forever. "

VIEW: Weblog Posts Index by Source Friday Rock Blogging: Keiiti Aki Memorial Edition Source: Green Gabbro - Fri, May 27, 2005 I've been trying this morning to think of a pretty way to illustrate the concept of seismic moment , in tribute to Keiiti Aki , who died last week at the age of 75. Measurements of the energy released by an earthquake are not, as a rule, photogenic. Seismic tomography - another place where we stand on Dr. Aki's shoulders - is somewhat better, and perhaps this afternoon I'll find some interesting examples. Meanwhile, you can't beat a good volcano for eye candy. Dr. Aki died while working on La R©union, a volcanic island in the Indian Ocean. Like Hawaii, R©union lies atop a "hot spot" of volcanic activity, and Piton de la Fournaise is one of the most active volcanoes in the world.

Stanford University These didn't capture how kind and helpful George was to many. As an aspiring researcher, I had the good fortune to visit Stanford and get to know him. He was very supportative at times that were important for me. He had a real compassion for people, and one of his lesser known projects was Compact City (with Tom Saaty), born out of concern that people have basic shelter and food.

OR/MS Today - June 2005 In Memoriam: George Dantzig George Bernard Dantzig Operations Research Loses a Pillar of the Profession Some thoughts of the late, great "Father of Linear Programming" on the past and future of operations research. By Peter Horner Editor's Note: George Dantzig, a truly legendary figure in the history of operations research, passed away on May 13 at the age of 90. We had the privilege of interviewing Professor Dantzig in 1999, shortly before his 85th birthday. That interview, which was first published in the October 1999 issue of OR/MS Today, Life is full of uncertainty. How do you explain it, let alone plan for it? SIDE STORIES: Achievements and Accolades My Time with the Great GBD Fortunately for the O.R. community, Dantzig's math skills improved. Dantzig went on to earn an A.B. degree in mathematics and physics from the University of Maryland (where his father taught mathematics), an M.A. in mathematics from the University of Michigan and a Ph.D. in mathematics from the University of California-Berkeley in 1946. It was while a grad student at Berkeley in the 1940s that Dantzig displayed the unique brand of genius that would eventually elevate him to almost mythical status in the O.R. community. Dantzig, believing he was working on a couple of "homework" assignments, instead solved two famous "unsolvable" problems that had stumped generations of statisticians. A legend was born.
