    Extractions: Pythagorean Triangles San Francisco, California 1981 OLGA TAUSSKY-TODD was born on August 30, 1906 in Olmutz (now Olomouc), which was then part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire and is now in the Czech Republic. She received her doctorate from the University of Vienna after studying with the number theorist Philip Furtwangler. She then held instructorships at the University of Vienna and the University of Gottingen, where she assisted in the editing of Hilbert's Collected Works. During 1934-1937, she studied on fellowshlp at Girton College, Cambridge University, where she received an MA. She went to Bryn Mawr College in l934-l935, while Emmy Noether was there. In 1937, Taussky-Todd worked at the University of London; where she met and married the mathematical analyst John Todd. At the beginning of the Second World War, they moved to Belfast, where she lectured at Queen's University and began to focus on the two areas of matrix theorygeneralizations of matrix commutativity and integral matricesthat were to occupy much of her career. She spent the latter part of the war in London, working on numerical applied mathematics. After the war, she did mathematical research for the National Bureau of Standards. In 1957, she started at the California Institute of Technology, where she currently holds the position of professor emeritus. She alsd spent a semester at the Courant Institute and a semester as a Fulbright Professor at the University of Vienna. Taussky-Todd has received many honors, including the Ford Prize for an article on sums of squares, published in 1970 in the American Mathematical Monthly. In 1978, she received the Austrian Cross of Honour for Science and Art, the highest scientific honor bestowed by the Austrian government. She was awarded an honorary DSc by the University of Southern California in 1988. A member of the Austrian and Bavarian Academies of Science, she is also a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, and a former Vice-President of the American Mathematical Society. She served on the editorial boards of several journals, including the Bulletin of the AMS. In 1993, the International Linear Algebra Society established a lecture series to honor the contributions to~ the field of linear algebra made by Taussky-Todd and her husband.

    Extractions: August 30, 1906 - October 7, 1995 Reprinted from the AWM Newsletter, January-February, 1996, Volume 26, #1, with permission of the author and the Association of Women in Mathematics. The field she is most identified with which might be called "linear algebra and applications" through "real and complex matrix theory" would be preferred by some did not exist in the 1930's, despite the textbook by C.C. MacDuffee. Her stature in that field is the very highest, as was palpable in the standing ovation after her survey talk at the second Raleigh conference in 1982. In tracing her professional development, I will say a little about how the field came together. Like other Jews in Germany and Austria, Olga Taussky would have had to leave by about 1938. Some delayed as long as they could; some, too long. She left in 1934. She moved, after a year at Bryn Mawr, to Girton College Cambridge, and remained in England until after World War II. It is amusing to hear the story of her job interview, where a member of the committee asked her, with motivation we can imagine, "I see you have written several joint papers. Were you the senior or the junior author?" Another member of the committee was G.H. Hardy, who interjected, "That is a most improper question. Do not answer it!" At another interview she was asked, "I see you have collaborated with some men, but with no women. Why?" Olga replied that that was why she was applying for a position in a women's college!

    Extractions: Version for printing Olga Taussky-Todd 's name before she married was Olga Taussky and she was born into a Jewish family. Her father, Julius David Taussky, was an industrial chemist who also wrote articles for a newspaper. Her mother, Ida Pollach, was never trained for anything other than being a housewife and looking after her children. Olga was the middle child of three girls, with three years separating her both from her older sister and from her younger sister. Of her parents she wrote [1]:- My father was a very interesting man, very active, very creative. ... My mother was a country girl ... a rather quiet lady ... educated to be a housewife ... When Olga was three years old the family moved to Vienna. There Olga attended primary school and although she did well, her older sister was the star pupil. Olga received the top or second top grade for arithmetic but her favourite subjects were essay writing and grammar. In addition to her schooling she had private music lessons. When World War I broke out conditions became very difficult indeed in Vienna, there was severe shortages of food and the family were near to starving. In 1916 the Taussky family moved again, this time to Linz where Olga's father had a job as director of a vinegar factory which, in addition to vinegar made jams and soft drinks. Julius Taussky was well qualifed for the job for he had coauthored a text on vinegar with his own father Samuel Taussky in 1903. Arriving in Linz in the middle of World War I, life was still hard for them but food, although still scare, was slightly more plentiful than in Vienna. When she was 14 years old Olga entered the high school where she spent a year before studying at the Gymnasium. At this stage she was still interested in writing and poetry, and initially the Latin that she began to study at the Gymnasium fascinated her, particularly Latin grammar. Suddenly, however, her interests moved to mathematics [1]:-
