  • A Conversation with Pranab Kumar
    Statistical Science 2008, Vol. 23, No. 4, 548–564 DOI: 10.1214/08-STS255 c Institute of Mathematical Statistics, 2008 A Conversation with Pranab Kumar Sen Malay Ghosh and Michael J. Schell Abstract. Pranab Kumar Sen was born on November 7, 1937 in Cal- cutta, India. His father died when Pranab was 10 years old, so his mother raised the family of seven children. Given his superior perfor- mance on an exam, Pranab nearly went into medical school, but did not because he was underage. He received a B.Sc. degree in 1955 and an M.Sc. degree in 1957 in statistics from Calcutta University, topping the class both times. Dr. Sen’s dissertation on order statistics and non- parametrics, under the direction of Professor Hari Kinkar Nandi, was completed in 1961. After teaching for three years at Calcutta Univer- sity, 1961–1964, Professor Sen came to Berkeley as a Visiting Assistant Professor in 1964. In 1965, he joined the Departments of Statistics and Biostatistics at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where he has remained. Professor Sen’s pioneering contributions have touched nearly every area of statistics. He is the first person who, in joint collaboration with Professor S. K. Chatterjee, developed multivariate rank tests as well as time-sequential nonparametric methods. He is also the first person who carried out in-depth research in sequential nonparametrics culminating in his now famous Wiley book Sequential Nonparametrics: Invariance Principles and Statistical Inference and SIAM monograph. Professor Sen has over 600 research publications. In addition, he has authored or co-authored 11 books and monographs, and has edited or co-edited 11 more volumes.
