CareerLogsdon taught at a high school from 1900 to 1911 before returning school herself. She earned a Ph.B., S.M., and Ph.D. in mathematics from the University of Chicago in 1913, 1915, and 1921 respectively.[1][4] She taught at Hastings College from 1913 to 1917 and at Northwestern University from 1917 to 1919. She then returned to her alma mater in 1921 where she was the only female regular faculty member above the rank of instructor until 1982 when Karen Uhlenbeck was appointed professor of mathematics.[3] Logsdon remained at the University of Chicago for a large portion of her career, until 1946. She concluded her career at the University of Miami, retiring in 1961.[1] Phd students at the University of Chicago include Anna A. Stafford (Henriques), James Edward Case, Clyde Harvey Graves, and Frank Ayres, Jr.[3] She wrote two texts Elementary Mathematical Analysis (1932 volume 1 and 1933 volume 2) and A Mathematician Explains (1935) both for undergraduate mathematics. Logsdon was a fellow of the International Education Board, a member of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, the American Mathematical Society, the Mathematical Association of America, and the director of the American Association of University Women (1929-1935).[1] References1. ^1 2 3 {{Cite book |title = The Biographical Dictionary of Women in Science: L-Z |url = https://books.google.com/books?id=LTSYePZvSXYC |publisher = Taylor & Francis |date = 2000-01-01 |isbn = 9780415920407 |language = en |first = Marilyn Bailey |last = Ogilvie |first2 = Joy Dorothy |last2 = Harvey}} {{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Logsdon, Mayme}}{{US-mathematician-stub}}2. ^1 {{cite book |title=Ogden Dunes: Images of America |author=Dick Meister, Ken Martin, and the Historical Society of Ogden Dunes |publisher=Arcadia Publishing |year=2014 |isbn=1467111899}} 3. ^1 2 {{cite book | url=https://books.google.de/books?id=IRbOAwAAQBAJ | isbn=978-0-8218-4376-5| first1 = Judy | last1 = Green | author1-link = Judy Green (mathematician) | first2 = Jeanne | last2 = LaDuke | author2-link = Jeanne LaDuke | title=Pioneering Women in American Mathematics — The Pre-1940 PhD's | location= | publisher=American Mathematical Society, The London Mathematical Society | series=History of Mathematics | volume=34 | edition=1st | date=2008 }} Biography on p.372-375 of the [https://www.ams.org/bookpages/hmath-34-PioneeringWomen.pdf Supplementary Material] at [https://www.ams.org/publications/authors/books/postpub/hmath-34 AMS] 4. ^{{MathGenealogy|id=6069}} 10 : 1881 births|1967 deaths|American women mathematicians|20th-century American mathematicians|University of Chicago alumni|Hastings College faculty|Northwestern University faculty|University of Miami faculty|Fellows of the American Mathematical Society|20th-century women mathematicians |
