Why Is Michael Nauenberg Influential?

(Suggest an Edit or Addition)

According to Wikipedia, Michael Nauenberg was an American theoretical physicist and physics historian. Life Born to a secular Jewish family in Berlin, his family emigrated to Barranquilla, Colombia in 1939 to escape persecution from the Nazis in World War II. When he moved to the United States in the 1950s, Nauenberg studied at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and received his doctorate in 1960 from Cornell University under Hans Bethe with a thesis on particle physics. He then became a visiting fellow at the Institute for Advanced Study. From 1961 to 1965, he was Assistant Professor of Physics at Columbia University. From 1964 to 1966 he was Visiting Physicist at Stanford Linear Accelerator Center and Stanford University. In 1966 he became Professor of physics at the University of California, Santa Cruz . He was also from 1988 to 1994 director of the Institute for Nonlinear Science at UCSC. After his retirement in 1994, he became Research Professor of Physics at UCSC. He was a visiting professor at various research institutions and universities in Europe.
