He spent much of his career at the Research Triangle Institute in Durham, North Carolina. He did research involving radioisotopes for the United States Atomic Energy Commission. He was a project officer for the Environmental Protection Agency, specializing in techniques for monitoring water and air quality. He developed new methods of analysis and monitoring for both agencies. ChildhoodHarold Gene Richter was born on {{birth date|mf=yes |1925|03|05}} in Fontanet, Indiana.[2] His parents were Leslie Earl Richter and Ola Rozella (Chandler) Richter. EducationAfter serving in World War II, Richter attended Franklin College in Franklin, Indiana. He earned his B.A. in 1947.[2] He then attended Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), where he completed his M.Sc. in 1950 and his Ph.D. in 1952, in the chemistry department.[3] At MIT, Richter worked with Charles D. Coryell, one of the researchers who characterized promethium. Richter wrote his Ph.D. thesis on The Photofusion of Uranium (1952)[4] and published a paper with Coryell on "Low-Energy Photofission Yields for U238" (1954).[5] Richter is not mentioned in contemporary sources that discuss the 1945 work on promethium done by Coryell, Jacob A. Marinsky, and Lawrence E. Glendenin at Clinton Laboratories in Oak Ridge, Tennessee.[6][7] His name appears in some post-2000 internet and print sources on promethium[8][9][10] at least one of which has been criticized by reviewers for inaccuracies.[11] CareerRichter joined the University of Oregon in Eugene, Oregon as of 1952 as a professor of chemistry.[3] In 1955, Richter moved to the U. S. Naval Radiological Defense Laboratory, at the Hunter's Point Naval Shipyard in San Francisco, California.[12] By August 1957, Richter was working for Nuclear Science and Engineering Corporation in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (later International Chemical and Nuclear Corporation). At Nuclear Science and Engineering Corporation he "developed new methods of radiochemical analysis and of low-level radioactivity techniques."[12] He then worked for the Isotope Development Laboratory of the Research Triangle Institute in Durham, North Carolina, which was founded in 1958. Some of his work at RTI was done under contract to the Division of Isotopes Development of the United States Atomic Energy Commission.[13] In 1964-1965 Richter received a Fulbright Award to go abroad.[14] He was able to visit and work with the Section d’Application des Radioelements of the Centre d'études nucléaires in Grenoble, France. There he did radioisotope research and developed radio-release methods for tracing stream flows.[15][16] Richter also acted as an EPA project officer for the Environmental Protection Agency of the United States. In the 1970s and 1980s, a major focus of his work was techniques for and studies of water and air quality.[17] DeathHarold G. Richter lived in Chapel Hill, North Carolina with his wife Marjorie Richter. He died on July 19, 2001.[18] He is buried at Chapel Hill Memorial Cemetery.[1] Selected works{{library resources box|by=yes|onlinebooksby=yes|viaf=75305151|LOC=Richter, Harold G. }}
