| C. Edward Sandifer received his AB from Dartmouth College 1973, and his MA, PhD, from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst 1975, 1980. He was Chair of the Northeastern Section of the MAA, 1998-2000, and Secretary of The Euler Society, 2002-present. He is also a member of the American Mathematical Society, the Canadian Society for the History and Philosophy of Mathematics, and the British Society for the History of Mathematics. He is one of the founding members of The Euler Society, and on the charter committee at the founding of the History of Mathematics Special Interest Group of the MAA (HoMSIGMAA). He has run 34 consecutive Boston Marathons and won the 1984 Northeastern (USA) Regional Marathon Championship. |
