Why Is Henry Burchard Fine Influential?
(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, Henry Burchard Fine was an American university dean and mathematician. Life and career Henry Burchard Fine played a critical role in modernizing the American university and raising American mathematics “from a state of approximate nullity to one verging on parity with the European nations”. This tribute in Oswald Veblen’s obituary [see in "Obituary" below] accurately recognized Fine’s role both in training American mathematicians to provide international leadership to this field and in building Princeton University’s reputation in mathematics and science. Fine’s efforts contributed greatly toward making Princeton the site of Albert Einstein’s first North American lectures, and eventually his home.
