Biographical Memoir COPYRIGHT 2008 NATIONAL ACADEMY OF SCIENCES WASHINGTON, D.C. SAMUEL EPSTEIN December 9, 1919–September 17, 2001 BY HUGH P. TAYLOR JR . AND ROBERT N. CLAYTON AMUEL EPSTEIN WAS ONE of the principal geochemists re- Ssponsible for pioneering discoveries regarding variations of the stable isotopes of oxygen, hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, silicon, and calcium on Earth, the Moon, and in meteorites. He was fortunate to have been at the forefront of great advances in the physics and chemistry of isotopes that were an outgrowth of atomic energy investigations in the wake of World War II. Although several scientists in the 1950s and 1960s recognized the power of stable isotope measurements to solve scientific problems, it was Sam more than anyone else who had the energy and insight to carry this out in such fundamental ways and in so many diverse fields, including: paleothermometry of carbonate fossils; geothermometry of minerals and rocks; origins of natural waters, including fluid inclusions in minerals; paleoclimatology records in glaciers, continental ice sheets, and tree rings; biological processes including living plants and animals, fossil plants and animals, and paleodiets; petroleum and natural gas; hydrothermal ore deposits; water and rock interactions; oceanography; meteorology; gases in Earth’s atmosphere; weathering and soil formation; studies of meteorites, lunar rocks, and tektites; and studies of igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks and their constituent minerals.

As such, it documents my direct engagement as an emergent poet with my own writing. A self- portrait of a woman’s imagination, this text narrates a transformative journey brought about by my experimentation with a number of writing strategies. Chief among these heuristics was a year-long fictive correspondence that I entered upon with the dead Modernist poet, H.D. [Hilda Doolittle]. A second heuristic used to structure my palimpsest-like text was a series of theoretical intertexts addressed to a “Dear Reader” who symbolized my academic committee. · Graduated on the Dean’s Honour List · Courses taken were in composition and creative writing theory, contemporary poetry and poetics, native literature, reader-response theory, feminist autobiographical theory, and qualitative research methodologies. 1991 Master of Fine Arts (Poetry) Warren Wilson College, Swannanoa, North Carolina · Apprenticed with such poets as Edward Hirsch, Ellen Bryant Voigt, Gregory Orr, Allen Williamson, and Brooks Haxton · Completed and published a manuscript of poetry · Wrote a 50-page essay on W.B.Yeat’s metrical revisions 1979 Master of Arts (English Literature) Concordia University, Montreal, Quebec · Specialized in Romantic and contemporary poetry and poetics · Wrote honours thesis on Denise Levertov’s poetics C.

  • Madam Chancellor: I Have the Honour to Present Dr. Leo Yaffe, B.Sc., M.Sc
    Madam Chancellor: I have the honour to present Dr. Leo Yaffe, B.Sc., M.Sc. (Manitoba), Ph.D. (McGill), D. Leu. (Trent). Dr. Yaffe is a distinguished son of this university and one who gained an insight into and a fascination with chemistry in part from his lessons from another of our honorary graduands, Dr. Alan N. Campbell. Dr. Yaffe's first published scientific paper, The Ternary Alloy System Silver, Lead and Aluminum, co-authored by Dr. Campbell and two others, appeared when Dr. Yaffe was still not old enough to vote. His interest in becoming a research chemist led him, as it has led so many young Canadians, then and now, to McGill U niversiry in Montreal, where he began to study and learn about those fascinating reactions in which atomic nuclei divide and elements change their very nature. It is as a student of nuclear fission and the mechanism of nuclear reactions that Dr. Yaffe has made a reputation as an outstanding Canadian scientist. He has contributed to both fundamental and applied areas of nuclear science, and today about half of his research output is devoted to the application of nuclear science to archeology. After completing his doctoral studies at the precocious age of twenty-three, Dr. Yaffe moved to the new laboratories of Atomic Energy of Canada Ltd., at Chalk River. There he served as Project Leader in the Nuclear Chemistry and Tracer Division. In passing, he had his first encounter with politics, acting as the Mayor of Deep River, Ontario, for two years. In 1952, he returned to McGill as a Special Lecturer in Chemistry.

After receiving his BSc in Geology at Michigan State University and his PhD at Harvard under the supervision of Al Romer, he visited the Redpath Museum for a short postdoctoral fellowship. When packing up his belonging to move onto another postdoctoral position in London, the Director of the Redpath offered him a full time position when he returned.
