Born and educated in Austro-Hungarian Empire, he spent the majority of his life in working for oil companies in Russia, and studying the geology of the South Pacific in Australia. Glaessner also did early work on the classification of the pre-Cambrian lifeforms now known as the Ediacaran biota, which he proposed were the early antecedents of modern lifeforms. Life and careerGlaessner was born in Aussig in the former the Austro-Hungarian Empire (now {{lang|cs|Ústí nad Labem}} in the Czech Republic). He was a research associate at the {{lang|de|Naturhistorisches Museum}} in Vienna from 1923 to 1932, and starting in 1925 attended the University of Vienna, where he received a doctorate in law in 1929, and a Ph.D. in geology and paleontology in 1931. He was a research associate at the Natural History Museum in London from 1930 to 1931.[1] In 1932 he moved to Moscow and began working in petrogeology at the State Petroleum Research Institute until 1934. From 1934 to 1937 he worked as a Senior Research Officer at the Institute of Mineral Fuels of the Russian Academy of Sciences, and was also a part-time lecturer at the University of Moscow's Moscow Petroleum Institute and Palaeontological Institute in 1936. Glaessner married Tina Tupikina in 1936, and moved back to Vienna in December late 1937. Of Jewish descent on his father's side, he was arrested on 19 March 1938 but released to work at the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company (now British Petroleum) in London. Later in 1938 he moved to Port Moresby, Territory of New Guinea (then under Australian control), where he worked for joint oil exploration companies until 1950.[1] He held various positions at the University of Adelaide from 1950 to 1989, including chair of Geology and Palaeontology in 1964. He was an associate at the South Australian Museum from 1953 to 1989.[1] AwardsGlaessner received the Lyell Medal of the Geological Society, the Walcott Medal of the National Academy of Sciences in 1982,[2] the Verco Medal awarded by the Royal Society of South Australia (1970), and the Suess Medal of the Geological Society of Australia. He became a fellow of the Australian Academy of Science in 1957 and was on its council from 1960 to 1962. He was a chairman of the National Committee of Geological Sciences from 1962 to 1977. He was made a Member of the Order of Australia in 1985.[3] He was an Honorary Research Associate at the American Museum of Natural History from 1950 to 1970.[1] Major publications
