Dr. Donald T. Stevenson (Interviewer), a close colleague and friend of Lax's throughout their long careers at MIT, joined MIT Lincoln Laboratory in 1951, the same year as Lax. He retired from MIT in 1989 as Assistant Director of the Francis Bitter National Magnet Laboratory.
Dr. Marion B. Reine (Editor) was an MIT graduate student of Lax's. He did his thesis research at the Francis Bitter National Magnet Laboratory.
Dr. Roshan L. Aggarwal (Editor) joined the MIT Francis Bitter National Magnet Laboratory in 1965, where he worked closely with Lax on the optical properties of semiconductors. He retired from MIT Lincoln Laboratory in 2016 after 51 years of research and teaching at MIT.
