Recollections of Hugh Everett III, 2005.

Hugh Everett (1930-1982). Mathematical physics (quantum mechanics, general relativity, theory of games). Head, mathematics section, weapons systems evaluation group, Institute for Defense Analysis (1956-1964); director of Lambda Division, Defense Research Corp. (1964-1965); and president, Lambda Corporation from 1965 until his death. A memoir covering Pugh's work with Hugh Everett on both military and commercial problems during the period 1956 to 1973. Written to provide background information to Eugene Shikhovtsev, a biographer of Everett, it would be of interest to historians researching the significant post-World War-II period when good mathematicians and theoretical physicists were in demand.
