Why Is Arlo U. Landolt Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Arlo Udell Landolt was an American astronomer known for his widely used photometric standards. Life and career Early life Landolt was born in Highland, Illinois to farmers Arlo M. Landolt and Vesta Kraus Landolt on September 29, 1935. He was the oldest of 4 Darnell M., Faye Beth, Sheryl Sue. He attended a one-room country grade school called IXL Country Grade School. He graduated grade school in 7 of 8 years because they accelerated his education. All of Landolt's relatives, like his parents, were farmers. After finishing grade school, he was the first of his family to go the high school. While in high school he took all the classes for agriculture. It was not until later on that Landolt showed interest in mathematics, physics, and the sciences. He was involved in 4H clubs and projects. He would base his projects on the hogs on their farm but would try to use the purebred over the crossed and mixed breeds that his father would raise. He would sell the hogs to get a Funk and Wagnall’s Encyclopedia set. He graduated from Highland High School in 1952.
