Deborah Howard is Professor Emerita of Architectural History at the University of Cambridge, where she is a Fellow of St John’s College. A graduate of Cambridge University (Newnham College, 1964-68, first class honours), she did her postgraduate studies at the Courtauld Institute of Art, University of London (MA with distinction 1969; PhD 1973). After a research Fellowship at Clare Hall, Cambridge, she taught at University College London, the University of Edinburgh and the Courtauld Institute, before returning to the University of Cambridge in 1992. She was appointed to a Personal Chair in Architectural History in 2001 and served as Head of the Department of History of Art for six years (2002-9, with sabbatical break) before retiring in 2013. On her retirement, her contribution was recognised by two Festschrift volumes, edited by Nebahat Avcıoǧlu, Emma Jones and Allison Sherman (2016-2018). She has an honorary doctorate from University College Dublin (2014).
In 2010 Howard was elected a Fellow of the British Academy. She is also a Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries, Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries of Scotland, Honorary Fellow of the Royal Incorporation of Architects of Scotland and Fellow of the Royal Society of Edinburgh.
She has held visiting appointments at Yale (summer Term program in London), Harvard (Aga Khan program and the Villa I Tatti), the National Gallery of Art in Washington DC, Smith College, Princeton, and the Universities of Melbourne and Queensland.
Among her many committee memberships she served on two Royal Commissions in Scotland between 1987 and 1999 and was Chairman of the Society of Architectural Historians of Great Britain from 1997 to 1999. She was a Trustee of British Architecture Library Trust (2001-10) and a non-executive Director of the British Architectural Trust Board (2011- 16). Since 2011 she has been a board member of the Centro di Studi di Architettura ‘Andrea Palladio’ in Vicenza. She is a Trustee of Venice in Peril, and was elected an Honorary Patron Member of the Society of Architectural Historians of GB in 2020.
Her principal research interests are the art and architecture of Venice and the Veneto; music and architecture in the Renaissance; and the relationship between Italy and the Eastern Mediterranean. In 2005 she established the Centre for Architectural and Musical Experiments in Renaissance Architecture (CAMERA) at Cambridge, supported by grants from the Arts and Humanities Research Council, the British Academy and the Gladys Krieble Delmas Foundation. She was one of the leaders of a major four-year ERC-funded research project entitled Domestic Devotions: The Place of Piety in the Italian Renaissance home 1400-1600 (2013-7). She has recently completed a research project funded by the Leverhulme Trust on the proto-industrial architecture of the Veneto.
Her monographs include Venice Disputed: Marc’Antonio Barbaro and Venetian Architecture 1550-1600 (Yale UP, 2011); Venice and the East: the Impact of the Islamic World on Venetian Architecture 1100-1500 (Yale UP, 2000); Scottish Architecture from the Reformation to the Restoration 1560 - 1660 (Edinburgh UP, 1995); The Architectural History of Venice (rev. edn. Yale UP, 2002, 1st edn. Batsford 1980); Jacopo Sansovino: Architecture and Patronage in Renaissance Venice (Yale University Press, 1975; rev. 1987).

Franz Huber was a leader in the study of insect communication. His work provided direct evidence for the localization of the neural and motor system involved in sound production in cricket song and formed the basis of modern neuroethology of behavior of insects. He also made fundamental contributions to an understanding of the role of pattern generators in behavior. Dr. Huber held a number of academic posts, including assistant and associate professor at the University of Tübingen's Institute of Animal Physiology (1949-63) and professor of zoology and animal physiology (1962-73) and dean of the faculty of natural sciences (1967-68) at the University of Cologne. Later, he organized and directed the Max-Planck-Institut in Seewiesen, Germany, serving both as a scientific member and research director. After retiring from the Institut, he was named Professor Emeritus. Dr. Huber's many honors include the Karl Ritter von Frisch Medal (1980), the Polish Physiological Society's Napoleon Cybulski Medal (1983) four honorary doctor degrees (Cologne 1988, Toulouse 1991, Odense 1992 and Zurich 1993), and elections to seven academies, including election as a foreign member to the American Academy of Arts & Sciences. He was elected a member of the American Philosophical Society in 1986. | |

Richard Huck-Saunders (1720–1785) was a physician, and a member of the American Philosophical Society via the absorption of the Medical Society by the American Society in 1768. Born in Westmorland county in northwest England, Huck’s early education fostered a particular faculty with Latin, which he anticipated to deploy in the study of classics at Oxford. But a fall and the resulting infection turned his imagination to surgery and the medical arts—he turned apprentice, until 1745, when he became a military surgeon in the Earl of Loudoun’s regiment. He took a formal M.D. from Marischal College in 1749; the next year he rejoined the army and sailed to Minorca to become surgeon to the 33rd Regiment of Foot. With the start of the Seven Years’ War, he traveled with Loudon to America in 1756 and was named Physician to the Army in 1757. He returned to England in 1762. After a bit of time on the Continent, Huck settled in London in 1765, where he was licensed by the Royal College of Physicians before appointment to Middlesex Hospital in 1766 and election to the Royal Society in 1768. Shy but affable, Huck won friends easily and gave of himself generously: among his admirers was APS Member Benjamin Rush, at least initially. Rush prized Huck’s support to win election to the Royal Society himself, but Huck’s skepticism about Rush’s accomplishments, however kindly expressed, turned Rush against him. Huck’s 1777 marriage to Jane Saunders, heiress to the estate of the naval hero Admiral Sir Charles Saunders, spurred Richard to take her name. The resulting children went on to marry well themselves, but Huck-Saunders’s world crumbled with the death of Jane in 1780. He never fully recovered. His 1784 election to Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians, speciali gratia—a particularly rare distinction, but especially for one not of Oxford or Cambridge—was a highlight of these last years, but Huck-Saunders died the following year at his home.

Caroline Humphrey is, clear and away, the foremost Western social anthropologist working on the Soviet Union/Russia, said no less an authority than fellow APS member Clifford Geertz, who reviewed Humphrey's classic work on the social and cultural complexities of a Siberian collective for the New Republic. Her wide-ranging scholarship of Asian populations and Mongol shamanism have further consolidated her position as the pre-eminent social anthropologist in her field. She is particularly known for her work on nomadic life in East Asia, its decline and the changing status of women in those societies; Russia's new criminal class; as well as her long interest in the Jain society, an ancient, ritualistic, non-Brahminical East Indian sect. Dr. Humphrey's fluency in Russian and Mongolian and her understanding of Tibetan, Hindi and Napali have further assisted her penetrating studies. Equally remarkable are her communication skills among scholars and the public, whether by lectures or through widely-acclaimed documentary films. Dr. Humphrey is a Fellow of King's College and has served as Sigrid Rausing Professor of Collaborative Anthropology at Cambridge since 2006. She has won the Staley Prize in Anthropology (1990), the Royal Anthropological Institute's Rivers Memorial Medal (1999) and the Heldt Prize (2002) and is the author of Karl Marx Collective: Economy, Society and Religion in Siberian Collective Farm (1983); Shamans and Elders: Experience, Knowledge and Power among the Daur Mongols (1996); and (with D. Sneath) The End of Nomadism? Society, State and the Environment in Inner Asia (1999). | |

Hermann Hunger is a historian of astronomy who is also a first-rate Assyriologist. His editions of cuneiform texts cover the entire range of the corpus and culminate in the publication of his Astronomical Diaries and Related Texts from Babylonia series. This work stands as one of the most important publications of original sources for the study of Babylonian astronomy and became widely known through Dr. Hunger's communication of the earliest known record of Halley's Comet. Born in Germany, Dr. Hunger earned his Ph.D. from the University of Munster in 1966. He served as associate professor at the University of Chicago prior to joining the faculty at the University of Vienna in 1978. He currently holds the position of Professor of Assyriology at the Institut für Orientalistik and chairs the Commission for the History of Natural Sciences, Mathematics and Medicine at the University of Vienna. | |

Joseph Hutchins (7 November 1746–29 April 1833) was an educator and clergyman of the Episcopal Church, and a member of the American Philosophical Society, elected in 1768. Born on Barbados, Hutchins first came to Philadelphia to enroll in the College of Philadelphia 1762. He returned to Barbados before graduating but soon left again, this time for England, where he was ordained in 1771. Returning home, Hutchins built a work balance that would define much of his working life: serving in the church while teaching in school. In Barbados this entailed serving as a curate at St. Michales while conducting a school to supplement his income. Though his positions were stable, pay from the parents of his charges were not, so Hutchins left for Pennsylvania. Again he carved out such positions in 1783, this time in Lancaster, when he began as a rector at St. James Church and as a schoolmaster nearby. Evidently respected in the area, Hutchins was named a trustee and professor at the opening of Franklin College in 1787. Whatever goodwill he had accrued he quickly lost when he spoke out hat the new college should teach predominantly in English. These sentiments were not shared by the predominantly Protestant German community who believed the Anglican church was attempting to curb their efforts to preserve the German language and culture. Within the year, he had left Lancaster, Franklin College, and St. James. Despite Hutchins’s hopes, he failed to procure a permanent church appointment and so taught schools in Philadelphia, then Easton, MD, and then back in Philadelphia again up through 1815. At this point, hoping he would benefit from a return to his childhood home, he returned to Barbados in 1815 at the age of 70. Once there he finally received an offer to the curacy at St. George’s parish which brought him a steady income, a home, and the company of family. Sadly, the situation came to an abrupt end and he was forced to retire in 1820 and returned to Philadelphia where he lived out the remainder of his life. (PI) | |
