According to Wikipedia, George Armitage Miller was an American psychologist who was one of the founders of cognitive psychology, and more broadly, of cognitive science.

He authored the paper, "The Magical Number Seven, Plus or Minus Two," in which he observed that many different experimental findings considered together reveal the presence of an average limit of seven for human short-term memory capacity.
