Why Is R. H. Bing Influential?

(Suggest an Edit or Addition)

According to Wikipedia, R. H. Bing was an American mathematician who worked mainly in the areas of geometric topology and continuum theory. His father was named Rupert Henry, but Bing's mother thought that "Rupert Henry" was too British for Texas. She compromised by abbreviating it to R. H. Consequently, R. H. does not stand for a first or middle name.
