In his nearly three decades of leadership of the natural sciences at the Rockefeller Foundation (RF), Warren Weaver contributed substantially to the mid-century revolution in biology and agricultural science. Over a lifetime dedicated to building bridges across the sciences, he also contributed significantly to mathematics, statistics, physics, computer science, and scientific associations.
Warren Weaver was born in Reedsburg, Wisconsin in 1894. He received his B.A. and Ph.D., as well as a Certificate of Engineering, from the University of Wisconsin. He served in the Army in World War I and taught mathematics at Throop College of Technology (now the California Institute of Technology) until 1920. Later that year, at the request of his mentor, physics professor Max Mason, Weaver joined the mathematics department at University of Wisconsin and chaired the department from 1928 – 1932. Together, in 1929, Mason and Weaver wrote the classic physics textbook, The Electromagnetic Field.
In 1932, Mason, now president of the Rockefeller Foundation, persuaded Weaver to lead the Foundation’s programs in natural sciences. Weaver’s insight and intellectual risk taking led him to focus funding on scientific endeavors at early stages of development. With support from the Foundation, he developed a new program in experimental biology. At the same time, he identified opportunities for interdisciplinary work across the biological and physical sciences that resulted in the new field of molecular biology (which Weaver named).
On leave to serve in the Air Force in World War II, Weaver organized the fire-control section of the National Defense Research Committee. A singularly important development, resulting from collaboration with Bell Telephone Laboratories, was the electrical antiaircraft device. Weaver then organized the Applied Mathematics Panel where interdisciplinary teams of mathematicians, economists and statisticians developed innovative techniques in sequential analysis and operations research.
Having returned to the Rockefeller Foundation after the war, Weaver contributed to the development and expansion of the “Green Revolution” when agriculture was added to his portfolio in 1950. RF’s agriculture programs not only supported breakthrough research on new, more productive varieties of corn, wheat and rice, they also contributed to training and institutional development, elements that Weaver knew were critical for ensuring long term success.
In 1954, he became Vice President for Natural and Medical Sciences. Upon retiring from the RF five years later, he served as vice president of the Alfred P Sloan Foundation from 1959 to 1964 and trustee from 1956-1964. Outside his foundation work, Weaver served on the genetics panel for the National Academy of Sciences, authoring a pioneering report on the biological effects of radiation. He was elected a fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in 1928 and president in 1954.
Weaver worked with many other institutions including the Salk Institute of Biological Studies, San Diego, CA (Trustee, Chairman of the Board, Non-Resident Fellow); Sloan Kettering Institute (Member, Board of Scientific Consultants, 1951-1954; Trustee, 1954- 1967; Chairman, Committee on Scientific Policy, 1955-1959; Member, Executive Committee, 1956-1967; Vice President, 1958-1959); Memorial Hospital (Member, Board, Memorial Center for Cancer and Allied Diseases, 1958-1960; Vice Chairman of the Board, Chairman of the Committee on Scientific Policy, Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, 1960-1967; Member, Executive Committee, Memorial Hospital for Cancer and Allied Diseases, 1960-1967). Weaver also served on a variety of councils and committees including the National Advisory Cancer Council USPHS, 1957-1960 and as a member of the Governor’s Committee on Hospital Costs (N.Y.), 1964-1965. Weaver was President and Chairman of the Board of the American Philosophical Society, 1955. He also served as Member, Vice-Chairman, and Member of the Executive Committee of the Health Research Council N.Y.C., 1958-1960; Director and President of the Public Health Research Institute, N.Y.C, 1961-1963; and as a Member of the National Science Board, National Science Foundation, 1956-1960.
In 1963, his passion for probability led him to publish a book for the non-mathematical public, Lady Luck: The Theory of Probability. An aficionado of Lewis Carroll, Weaver published in 1964, Alice in Many Tongues, explaining the challenges of translating Alice in Wonderland into nearly 40 languages.
In recognition of Warren Weaver's extraordinary contributions to the Rockefeller Foundation and to the pursuit of science, in 1989, the Foundation instituted the Warren Weaver Fellows Program. The fellows have been talented individuals who, during one-year residencies, have contributed fresh perspectives on the Foundation’s work in specific program areas.
Warren Weaver died in 1978 at the age of 84 in New Milford, Connecticut.

Tukey, John W., 1915-2000. John W. Tukey Papers, 1937-2000
Title:
John W. Tukey Papers 1937-2000
One of the most influential statisticians of the twentieth century, John Wilder Tukey (1915-2000) played a key role in both the development and study of statistics. The Tukey Papers provides a comprehensive perspective into Tukey's professional activities from his days as a graduate student until his death in 2000. Among the material is his correspondence and his published and unpublished works. There is abundant material from Tukey's long careers at Bell Laboratories and Princeton University, including extensive lecture notes and syllabi. Also included are copious materials relating to his professional activities with such agencies as the National Research Council, the Army Records Office, Xerox PARC, Merck and Company, the President's Science Advisory Committee, and the National Academy of Sciences.

Title:
Records, 1893-1984 and n.d. (bulk 1930-1965).
Chiefly correspondence and research files, as well as legal and financial papers, clippings, and photographs. Includes records of the laboratory primarily during its operation at Duke University, 1930-1965. Contains personal and professional papers of J.B. Rhine, L.E. Rhine, J.G. Pratt and other laboratory staff members, such as Rhea White. There are editorial files (1942-1959) of Dorothy Pope, Managing Editor of the JOURNAL OF PARAPSYCHOLOGY, and papers (1957-1963) relating to Rhea White and J.G. Pratt as officers of the Parapsychological Association. Topics include extrasensory perception, psychokinesis, displacement analysis, the Psychical Research Foundation, grants for parapsychology research, mediums, spirit survival, and the teaching of parapsychology.

Correspondence, institutional minutes, internal and special reports, officers' diaries, staff files, photographs, and related materials document the entire grant-making process, the evolution of the Foundation's programs and policies, and the historical and intellectual contexts in which grants were made. Topics covered by the records include but are not limited to medical education, public health, and nursing; agricultural and natural sciences;population sciences; the arts, humanities, and social sciences; and international relations.

New York Times Company records. Arthur Hays Sulzberger papers, 1823-1999
Title:
New York Times Company records. Arthur Hays Sulzberger papers 1823-1999
Arthur Hays Sulzberger was the publisher of xxThe New York Timesxx from 1935 until 1961 and chairman of the board of The New York Times Company from 1961 until 1968. While he was publisher, circulation of The Times almost doubled; the editorial page developed a reputation for strong opinions; news events were subjected to more analysis and coverage of specialized topics was strengthened; new sections and departments were created for food, fashion, and women; and the overall style of the paper became less rigid and more aesthetically pleasing. The papers document Sulzberger's life and career at xxThe New York Timesxx, with the majority of the collection relating to Sulzberger's 26 years as president and publisher of the paper. Included in the collection are correspondence with family members, friends, colleagues, world leaders, and other dignitaries; memoranda regarding the business of the newspaper, including Sulzberger's notes of praise and criticism to his editors, managers, and writers; reports on his meetings with world leaders, including Winston Churchill, Dwight D. Eisenhower, Franklin D. Roosevelt, and Harry S. Truman; and photographs of Sulzberger, his family, business trips, vacations, and The Times' buildings.
