"Robert Stanley Livingston"
Bio:

Dr. Livingston was born in San Francisco and received his bachelor's, a master's and doctor's degrees from the University of California. He spent a year of study and research in Copenhagen and more recently a year in Chicago on a Lalor fellowship. He has done much research in reaction kinetics and more recently in the field of photochemistry. He is director of the physical chemistry Laboratory in Minnesota. From 1942 to 1945 he was on leave of absence, first in Chicago and then in Washington, working on important war projects. Dr. Livingston finds recreation in hiking and in calculations of a statistical nature, especially if these are of no use to anybody.
