}}Ruth Michele Charney (born 1950)[1] is an American mathematician known for her work in geometric group theory and Artin groups. She became president of the Association for Women in Mathematics in 2013, and holds the Theodore and Evelyn G. Berenson Chair in Mathematics at Brandeis University. She was in the first group of mathematicians named Fellows of the American Mathematical Society.[2]

Life

Charney attended Brandeis University, graduating in mathematics in 1972.[3] She then attended Merce Cunningham Dance Studio for a year, studying modern dance. She received her Ph.D. from Princeton University in 1977 under Wu-Chung Hsiang.[4]

Work

Following her graduation from Princeton, Charney took a postdoctoral position at University of California, Berkeley, followed by an NSF postdoctoral appointment/assistant professor position at Yale University.[5] She worked for Ohio State University until 2003, when she returned to work at Brandeis University.

Charney was elected as President of the Association for Women in Mathematics in 2013.[3] She emphasized the importance of encouraging young women in mathematics through summer programs, mentorships, and parental involvement.[6]

She has served as an editor of the journal Algebraic and Geometric Topology.[5]

Honors

In 2013 Charney was named a Fellow of the American Mathematical Society in the inaugural class.[2]

In 2017 she was selected as a fellow of the Association for Women in Mathematics in the inaugural class.[7]
