George Glauberman
received his Ph.D. in 1965 from the University of
Wisconsin--Madison under the supervision of Richard H. Bruck, with
additional help from Helmut Wielandt and John Thompson.
His work has been in the theory of finite groups, especially their
local analysis. He is also an avid baseball fan (the famed
Jewish pitcher
Sandy Koufax
is one of his heroes) and played
catcher on the Math--Stat graduate student softball team
1996--2010, wearing a replica of Jackie Robinson's uniform. Since
retiring from softball because of an injury, his hobby has been to
learn about fusion systems.
