(Suggest an Edit or Addition)According to Wikipedia, James Richard "Jim" Jackson was an American mathematician, well known for his contribution to queueing theory. Jackson was born in Denver and raised in Beverly Hills. He served in the United States Air Force during World War II. After his service, he earned an A.B. in 1946, an M.A. in 1950 and a Ph.D. in 1952, with a thesis titled Abstract Function Spaces and Their Homotopy Theory. All of these degrees were from UCLA where Jackson remained in the School of Management for his career until his retirement in 1985.
