Jacob Wolfowitz (1910-1981) By Rudolph Ahlswede During the last year the world has lost three of its leading statisticians, among them being Jacob Wolfowitz who died on July 16, 1981, in Tampa, FL, after suffering a heart attack. His ideas and inspiration will continue to live in his work and in the hearts and minds of those who knew him. He was born on March 19, 1910, in Warsaw, Poland. He received the B.S. degree from the City College of New York, New York, NY, in 1931, the M.S. degree from Columbia University, New York, NY, in 1933, and the Ph.D. degree from New York University, New York, NY, in 1942. In 1938 Wolfowitz met Abraham Wald at Columbia; thus began a very fruitful and almost unique collaboration which produced some fundamental results in theoretical statistics, particularly in the areas of decision theory and sequential analysis. Unfortunately, this first and seemingly most decisive period in Wolfowitz's research activity ended tragically in 1950 with Wald's untimely death in an airplane crash in India. Shortly thereafter, in 1951, Wolfowitz moved to Cornell University, Ithaca, NY, where he had his 1ongest tenure and perhaps also his most productive period. At Cornell his great love of discussing new ideas and problems resulted in collaboration with several mathematicians and also with his students. Most outstanding of these was J. Kiefer (another of the three statisticians we lost last year, the third being J. Neyman). Besides extending the frontiers opened up by Wald in the areas of decision theory and sequential analysis, Kiefer and Wolfowitz also either pioneered or made important early contributions in new fields such as stochastic approximation, many server queuing systems, and the design of experiments. (An extensive discussion of these contributions can be found in Jacob Wolfowitz: Selected Papers, J. Kiefer Ed. New York: Springer Verlag, 1980.)

Jacob attended High School in New York and, having graduated, entered the College of the City of New York. While Wolfowitz was in the middle of his undergraduate course the Great Depression began. The Great Depression began in 1929 and by 1932 one quarter of the workers in the United States were unemployed. When Wolfowitz graduated in 1931 there was little prospects of good employment so he spent the next ten years teaching mathematics in a number of different high schools while he worked towards his doctorate. In 1934 Wolfowitz married Lillian Dundes; they had one daughter, born in 1941 and a son Paul, born in 1943. Paul Wolfowitz became the Deputy Secretary of Defense (sic) for the USA in March 2001. Wolfowitz met Wald in 1938 and they began a collaboration which lasted until Wald 's death [2]:- They were the closest of friends, and Wolfowitz regarded
