List of Biographies Berwald Ludwig Berwald (1883-1942). Born in Prague. Studied mathematics in Munich and became a full professor at the German Charles University in Prague. His scientific work is mainly in differential geometry, notably on Finsler geometry and on spray geometry, i.e. , path spaces. He died in Poland after having been deported by the German authorities just because he was Jewish. Bortolotti Enea Bortolotti (1896-1934). Born in Rome. After a break during the First World War, he received his Ph.D. in 1920 at Pisa; he was particularly influenced by L. Bianchi. After teaching at the medical school, he became professor of geometry at the Univerity of Cagliari in 1928. From there he moved on to the same position at the University of Florence in 1934. Despite his premature death, Bortolotti published about a hundred papers, notably in differential geometry. Cartan van Dantzig David van Dantzig (1900-1959). Born in Rotterdam, Netherlands. Studied mathematics at the University of Amsterdam. Worked first on differential geometry, electrodynamics and unified field theory. Known as co-founder, in 1946, of the Mathematical Centre in Amsterdam and by his role in establishing mathematical statistics as a subdiscipline in the Netherlands. Dienes Paul Dienes (1982-1952). Born in Tokaj, Hungary. Studied mathematics. From 1929-1945 Reader, and from 1945-48 Professor at Birkbeck College, University of London.

Eisenhart, Luther Pfahler Eisenhart, Luther Pfahler (1876-1965) contributed to Princeton's development in many ways: as mathematician, teacher, chairman of his department; as chairman of the Committee on Scientific Research, dean of the faculty, dean of the Graduate School; and as father of the four-course plan. Born in York, Pennsylvania, Eisenhart was graduated in 1896 from Gettysburg College where he excelled in baseball and mathematics. He completed all of the mathematics courses the college gave by the end of his sophomore year and spent his last two years studying mathematical problems on his own under the general guidance of his professor. This experience, he said later, gave him the idea for the four-course plan. He went on to graduate study at the Johns Hopkins University, where he found the emphasis on study and research and the low priority given to rules and restrictions congenial and stimulating. After receiving his Ph.D. in 1900, Eisenhart was called to Princeton by President Patton as instructor in mathematics. He soon earned a reputation as a stimulating teacher and in 1905 was selected by Woodrow Wilson to be one of the original preceptors. He also made his mark as one of the elite group of promising young mathematicians brought together and nurtured by Dean Fine, and rose to the rank of full professor in 1909 when he was only thirty-three. In 1925, following Eisenhart's work on the early development of the four-course plan, President Hibben chose him as dean of the faculty. Four years later, after Dean Fine's death, Eisenhart was also appointed chairman of the Committee on Scientific Research, named Dod Professor of Mathematics, and made chairman of the department. Eisenhart's continuation of the work begun by Fine brought Princeton to a preeminent place among the world's centers for mathematical study and prepared the way for the outstanding scientific contribution the University was able to make to the national effort in World War II. In the interregnum between the Hibben and Dodds presidencies, Eisenhart bore a major share of administrative responsibility. In 1933 President Dodds named him dean of the Graduate School.

The work of deans is arduous and sometimes invidious (President McCosh's word for it), but some forty persons who have been deans have generally shown staying power and devotion. Given their stature, it is remarkable that so few of them have gone on to college or university presidencies Luther P. Eisenhart received seven presidential calls during his several deanships, and it is probable that every dean has received at least one call. Deans are generally held in high regard, and their title considered an honorable one, though Dean McClenahan once announced that he preferred to be called ``mister'' having just read in the

Eisenhart, Luther Pfahler US theoretical geometrist who formulated a unifying principle to the theory of the deformation of surfaces. In the 1920s he attempted to develop his own geometry theory from that of German mathematician Georg Riemann. Eisenhart was born in York, Pennsylvania, and studied at Gettysburg College, Pennsylvania, and Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore. His life's work in mathematical research was spent at Princeton University 1900-45. One of Eisenhart's major achievements was to relate his theories regarding differential geometry to studies bordering on the topological. At the age of 25 he wrote one of the first characterizations of a sphere as defined in terms of differential geometry (the paper had the somewhat daunting title 'Surfaces whose first and second forms are respectively the second and first forms of another surface'). The deformation of a surface involves the congruence of lines connecting a point and its image. Eisenhart's contribution was to realize that, in all known cases, the intersections of these surfaces with the given surface and its image form a set of curves which have special properties. He wrote his account of the theory in 1923, in Transformations of Surface.

His father Charles Eisenhart had a surprisingly large number of different occupations as Eisenhart himself described (see [5]):- My father, after being a student at the York County Academy, taught in a country school until ... he went to Marshall, Michigan, and worked in a store. At the same time, he was apprentice to a local dentist. Being very expert with his hands, he soon acquired competence in the technique of dentistry. In due time he returned to York, set up a dentist office, and was married. He made sufficient income to meet the expenses of his growing family, but his intellect was too active to be satisfied by dentistry. Electricity appealed to him and he organized the Edison Electric Light Company in the early eighties. The telephone also made an appeal. He experimented with telephones and in the late nineties organized the York Telephone Company. Luther was the second of his parents' six sons. He was brought up in a religious home with much of the family's social life being centred around St Paul's Lutheran Church. His mother provided him with such a good foundation to his education that, after beginning primary schooling at the age six and a half, he took only three years to complete the normal course of six years. He attended York High School but took the final year off school to prepare for entry to College undertaking independent study of Latin and Greek.
