A leader in theoretical and physical chemistry, Donald Hornig was born in 1920 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. He received his doctoral degree from Harvard University in 1943 and went on to work at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute and the Los Alamos Laboratory where he conceived and developed a triggered spark-gap switch to initiate the explosive lenses used to set off the implosion in the first plutonium device. Later, Dr. Hornig held teaching positions at Brown University, becoming a full professor at the age of 31, before moving to Princeton University in 1957 as chairman of the Department of Chemistry. In 1964, he was named as the science advisor to President Lyndon Johnson, fulfilling that role until 1969. He had previously served as a science advisor to Presidents Eisenhower and Kennedy. After a brief term as vice president of Eastman Kodak Company, he returned to Brown as president of the university, serving in that capacity until 1976, when he became President Emeritus. Subsequently he became Professor of Chemistry in the School of Public Health at Harvard University, and from 1987-90, when he retired, he was chairman of the Department of Environmental Health in the Harvard School of Public Health. Dr. Hornig was the recipient of a Guggenheim Fellowship, a Fulbright Fellowship and the Charles Lathrop Parsons Award of the American Chemical Society as well as a member of the National Academy of Sciences and the American Academy of Arts & Sciences. Donald Hornig died January 21, 2013, at the age of 92, in Providence, Rhode Island.

Painter Andrew Wyeth was born in Chadds Ford, Pennsylvania in 1917. Influenced by his father, the illustrator N.C. Wyeth, he had his first one-man exhibition in New York at age twenty and would go on to become one of the century's best-known artists. Acclaimed for his portrayals of both land and people (particularly in Pennsylvania and Maine), Mr. Wyeth has maintained a relatively consistent realist painting style for over fifty years, returning to several identifiable landscape subjects and models over a period of decades. Working primarily in watercolor, drybrush or egg tempera, he has created such famous works as Christina's World; Winter, 1946; Groundhog Day; Soaring; and The Carry. His work can be found in the collections of most major American museums, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Museum of Modern Art, the National Gallery of Art and the Smithsonian American Art Museum. An especially large collection of his work can be seen at the Brandywine River Museum in Chadds Ford, and the Philadelphia Museum of Art held a major Wyeth retrospective in 2006. The first painter to receive the Presidential Medal of Freedom (1977), Mr. Wyeth has also been awarded the Congressional Gold Medal of Honor and the National Medal of Arts and has been elected to both the Academie des Beaux-Arts and the Royal Academy.
