Benoit Mandelbrot (left) died on October 14, 2010.
This photo was taken on April 29, 2006.
Prof. Mandelbrot had just delivered the AMS Einstein Public Lecture in Mathematics
at the
Spring Western Sector Meeting
of the American Mathematical Society
at San Francisco State University.
For the next couple of hours he entertained us while we
were all enjoying our box lunches.
We all miss him.
My genial friend
Bill Erickson,
the pioneering radio astronomer who was my colleague
at the Convair Scientific Research Laboratory
in San Diego from 1957 to 1963.
