Emigrates to U.S. in 1951; matriculates at San Mateo Junior College; transfers to Berkeley, studies electrical engineering (control theory); switches to radio engineering, under John Whinnery, for MS; enters new field of masers for PhD. In 1959, joins group at Bell Labs under James P. Gordon working on making the first laser. Visits T. H. Maiman at Hughes Research Laboratories after Maiman produces first laser using another approach. Leaves Bell Labs to http://resolver.caltech.edu/CaltechOH:OH_Yariv_A work on lasers for Watkins-Johnson. Joins Caltech September 1964 as associate professor of electrical engineering; sets up laboratory on semiconductor lasers and another on nonlinear optics. Contacts with Roy Gould; laser work of Nicholas George. Teaches course in solid-state physics and one in laser physics called Quantum Electronics. Publishes Quantum Electronics in 1967, first text in the field.

  • EXHIBIT REVIEW Jewish Journeys to San Diego
    EXHIBIT REVIEW Jewish Journeys to San Diego Joellyn Zollman, Curator San Diego’s Jewish pioneers arrived with statehood in 1850. These risk-taking innovators came to the southwestern most settlement in the United States looking for adventure, for good weather, for better health, and, above all, for opportunity to make the American dream their own. California’s early Jewish settlers were double immigrants—having come to America from Europe and uprooting themselves again, to go west. Since the turn of the 20th century, the Jewish community here has only grown, as Jews from all over the world have decided to make San Diego home. Why did Jewish individuals and families choose San Diego? How did they get here? What sort of community did they find, and how did they shape it? This article explores these questions through the lens of twelve Jewish journeys to San Diego between 1850 and the present. Each Jewish journey portrayed at the History Center illustrates certain themes or characteristics of the community. They are representative stories, meant to capture the links between region and identity, journey and destination, that emerge from the timeline of San Diego’s Jewish history. Louis Rose’s entry, for example, represents the pioneer experience, considering the motivations and implications of a Jewish journey to San Diego via wagon train in 1850. This was a route travelled by dozens of other pioneer Jews who settled in San Diego. Rose’s story is his own, but his journey also reminds us of the challenges that 19th century travel to California presented for Jews, and his destination prompts us to recall the deep roots of the Jewish community in this city.
