I am very happy to see this photo of my beloved uncle, Dr. Nathan M. Glaser! This is the person from whom I have learned so much throughout my life and career. He was a friend and a teacher. He married my aunt, a Brazilian nurse in Chicago. He was an extraordinary person, a wonderful heart, who was absolutely passionate about life and science. We would spend hours and days talking about his experiences thru psycology and education, as well as the history his eyes have witnessed during his life, WWII experiences treating soldiers traumas from war, and it mesmerized me eveytime he would tell us the remarkable details of history back on those days. As unique his personality was, he asked to be burried in Brazil with our family. He is dearly remembered and always missed!

Wonderful to see these old portraits of important but forgotten people, esp. women scientists.

We agree Melinda!

I'm wondering why you chose to feature a non-American woman on your email link to this posting? Surely, there are many Americans, mostly unsung, you might have featured.

Hi, Thanks for your comment. We make an effort to feature as many of these women as possible as you'll see from out Women In Science Wednesday series here - siarchives.si.edu/blog/tag/women-science-wednesday. The collection these images are from is the Science Service org collection. This organization reported on science news across the world, so you will find scientists from all over the world. I hope you enjoy the rest of the set where there are many American women. Best, Effie, SIA

a great nobel price thank for my country regards
