The author of more than 70 papers and 6 books, his work touched on such diverse fields as economics, physics, and biology. LifeBharucha-Reid was born Albert Turner Reid, the son of William Thaddeus Reid and Mae Marie Beamon Reid of Hampton, Virginia.[1] He studied math and biology at Iowa State University, where completed a BS in 1949. He continued his studies at the University of Chicago from 1950 to 1953, where he began to focus more intensely on statistics and probability.[1] He published eight papers during his time at the University of Chicago, but he did not finish his PhD dissertation because he felt it was a waste of time.[3] In 1954, he married Rodabe Phiroze Bharucha, and he legally changed his name to Albert Turner Bharucha-Reid.[1] He had two children, Kurush Feroze Bharucha-Reid, and Rustam William Bharucha-Reid. WorkBharucha-Reid published his first paper, a work on mathematical biology, when he was only 18 years old.[2] He went on to teach and lecture in the United States, Europe, and India. He held professorships or research positions at Columbia University, the University of California, Berkeley, the University of Oregon, Wayne State University, the Polish Academy of Sciences, and Atlanta University.[1] In particular, in 1970 he was appointed Dean of the School of Arts and Sciences at Wayne State University.[2] LegacyA lecture series has been named in his honor by the National Association of Mathematicians.[1] Selected publications
